Ryte - The Eye of Atlantis

Do not listen to all of the Negative reviews about being a "Buggy Mess". There are only a few bugs, and I only experienced 1 major bug, and it was not game breaking. When I was well into the 1st Chapter, I came back to play the game again, and my progress appeared to be lost. When I selected "Continue Game", they sent me all the way back to the initial Tutorial like I had started a new game. I had made significant progress that I thought was lost, but after I quickly ran through the Tutorial again, they brought me back to where I left off in Chapter 1. I think they only other bugs I noticed was perhaps a couple objects were not where they were supposed to be, and when I restarted the game and continued it later, the items were where they were supposed to be. Nothing game breaking at all, and this beautifully created Puzzle game that is very polished. It is well worth the current $10.99 asking price. I got it on sale a long time ago when it first came out, and it was even more expensive on sale back then than the full price is now. I think I paid ~ $12 for it...well worth that was well. I just now got the chance to play thought the entire game, and it was awesome! Some ga…

This is absolutely one of the best VR games I have ever played. Sure it has its quirks like all VR games, but the adventure is well worth any minor issues along the way. Honestly, what I perceived as bugs actually turned out to be mostly me not doing something correctly. The puzzles are challenging but not illogical. I did have to consult a walkthrough for many of the puzzles, but it was always something where if I had a little more patience then I would have figured it out eventually. This game is also well optimized. I was able to maintain a solid 90 fps the entire game. It also worked very well with the Index headset and Index controllers. I really had no issues with the controls. It also has teleport movement, which I prefer over locomotion. Overall, I really enjoyed the theme and setting and the puzzles were very enjoyable as well. I definitely recommend this game to anyone who enjoys a good classic puzzle experience in VR.

Let me start out with this warning... If you don't get this game on a serious sale you will be angry. Its very nice looking but the controls kill the game experience badly. Also its buggy and only uses teleport for movement which is horrible. Give me free movement and just put barriers to prevent me from moving past areas.. Anyways, I found myself liking the story but I did not have any idea what i needed to do in several parts and also things you do affect if you win or loose without ever letting on that you have other options. Towards what i guess was a bad end it moved me on without me doing anything while i still had things to do. I might come back to it some time later but for now I'm done with it.

The game looks good, however, in the Quest2, it is quite jittery, and freezes, have 256GB, so memory shouldn't be the issue. all the other VR games I've played have work just fine, res and fps are good. Something weird going on in this game with Quest2

EDIT << I played the game with Quest 2 and Snap Turning was working fine. And the game still looks great with its display. The rest of my comments are based on my previous gameplay using Samsung Odyssey+ WMR headset. >> Wow, I am surprised what I've seen here, my expectations was low because of the 'Mostly Negative' tag. On the contrary, this became my recent favourite surrealist type of game among 'Journey for Elysium', 'Mind: Path To Talamus' and 'Xing: The Land Beyond'. Gameplaywise and as a walking simulator, it is between 'Blind Spot' and 'Journey for Elysium', even some of the puzzles are nearly identical. If you like one of those games, you should also be liking this one. I also recommend them as better and complete experiences. However, this game has interesting shortcomings comparing to an average VR game of this kind, which is very sad. - No turning, neither snap nor smooth turning. Really weird one! - No free locomotion, only teleport. Luckily not spot-only or onrail teleportation. You can go everywhere in a typical level. Normally, these two limitations could be a deal breaker, because there is really no reason to limit the player. But I tried to ignore that beca…

Game breaking bug: I lost a key and it's forever gone. Restart game does not help. Only solution would be to start the whole story from the beginning. Sorry, that’s really bad. Will look for refund.
