Lost Contact

'Lost Contact' is a pretty basic alien shooter in which you are given one assault rifle and several belt holes for ammunition. Right from the word go you can tell this is going to be a pretty crappy experience with its Russian voice over drowning everything else out. Then the ♥♥♥♥-show really starts as you see your first alien, a poorly animated screaming thing that was about as scary as a cheap Haloween decoration and that goes for all the enemies you will see in this game, none of them are scary and none of them offers much in the way of a challenge. My biggest gripe with this game is that you don't get a save point and there is technically only one level. You play the same level over and over and you have to equip and load out after every death. I paid just £4.31 for this in a sale and I felt ripped off, if I had paid full price I would have asked for a refund. What happened to the good old days when indie VR games were cheap fun and full of originality? There is no way I can recommend this at the moment, but I could see it improving with age and more effort. Do check out my gameplay video (no Commentary) here - https://youtu.be/BX2QVZMzosY
