About The Riese Project - Prologue
Uncover the secrets of your grandfather's disappearance and a buried Nazi complex by exploring a mysterious family hotel and solving context-driven puzzles as the sharp-witted protagonist Anna. This narrative-driven adventure prioritizes atmospheric storytelling and meaningful choices over spectacle, playable free in both standard and VR formats.
Some stories are better left in the dark. But some will find you. In Riese, echoes don’t always answer the same. A narrative FPP/VR experience about a past that refuses to stay silent.

[h1]"Prologue", "Episode 0/1", "DEMO"....[/h1] [i] All descriptions for the same thing: [u]an incomplete game, released with it's own Store-Page[/u][/i] Instead of releasing these ''demos'' on the same Store-page as their future title, they choose to have 2 store-pages instead of 1, hoping that this will [i]''increase their reach to a bigger audience''[/i] - even if that goes at the cost of cluttering up the ''free to play'' tabs, making it harder to find actual GOOD F2P games. Worst part? Crypto-shell companies, Ai-slop farmers, triple-A studios and even good, honest - small indie devs are doing this. There are actual HARDWORKING DEVS out there who see this kind of sh!t, and come to the conclusion that the only way to compete, is to do the same scummy practice as the bigger, more popular fish out there!

Amazing immersive experience. Never felt like i was the character as muich as this. Graphics was awesome too. Puzzles were easy enough to not require a walkthrough. Interactions were very smooth. The woods level was my favourite. Worth playing the whole thing.1 found this helpful
It looks amazing with an headset, but very bad performance in VR with specs above recommended is not great. Ghosting and smearing is too much and very visible, for lights especially. Smooth turning is very slow at 10 (max speed) and snap turning has only few angles, so not a good alternative. Voice acting is monotone and AI like. Given is the main thing of the game, is not good.1 found this helpful
The main character is super annoying and the English VA is terrible. Maybe it's better in Polish, but the mc still likely annoying. Also, it's super glitchy. Within the first few minutes I had a key item glitch through the floor and I got stuck in the environment, so I had to restart twice. Terrible first impression and the lame sounding plot didn't make me want to keep going. I played in VR, so maybe in desktop mode it's less glitchy, but definitely pass on this one if you wanna play in VR.1 found this helpful

I had high expectations for this game, but I had to stop playing it because it's glitchy indeed, as other users have said: Doors flickering, items disappearing, etc. Sometimes I couldn't even go through certain (open) doors. There are other issues like the abruptness of climbing or going down the stairs, etc. Needs polishing in general. On the other hand, I found the main character's personality to be insolent and uptight, which is something that also put me off.
