Magic Lantern

I played this on the Oculus Rift with Touch Controller and the only issue was the button mapping. To select menu items, you do have to press down on the joystick and hit trigger. Otherwise, game plays fine. I picked up this game on the Halloween sale for .99 cents and it's easily worth more than that. I liked it so much that I went ahead and got the DLC (also on sale for .49 cents). This game is a small VR sandbox with a lot of charm. I loved the graphics for this game type and the mini-games were fine (drawing, shooting darts, laser with cat). What sets this game a part from other sandboxes is the Magic Lantern, i.e. projector. You project several short stories on the wall while the little girl narrates them. These stories are shortened version of classics, but they are drawn so well and the narration is very good on all of them. I just had to smile while enjoying these. Sale Price Rating 8/10 Highly recommended for kids or for kids at heart (yeah, even a hardened cynic like me enjoyed it immensely)

Pretty disappointing. Went into it expecting a blast of childhood nostalgia, but what I get instead was a blast of mediocrity.

This is a very sweet little game, it made me feel like a kid again :) There's not exactly much to "do" in it but it's beautifully put-together and very relaxing to sit there and watch a story on the projector, throw objects out the window, or laugh at the cat floating around the room on his roomba.

because i have a small hp laptop i cant play magic lantern because it is not strong enough!
