About Trapped With the Dolls VR

Trapped With The Dolls is a room-scale Virtual Reality psychological thriller that requires the player to solve puzzles and unveil mysteries to escape from the dolls. You find yourself wrapped in the twisted imagination of a little girl, Claire. She had become obsessed with her dolls, and over time, they became obsessed with her. As you progress, you learn more and more about what has happened to Claire...and wonder just how much of it is in her mind.

This is a room-scale Virtual Reality game that utilizes a 2.5m x 2.5m play space in order to create the most immersive experience available today. Average game play is 10-15 minutes, and the player is encouraged to approach it as they would a real life mystery escape room. Explore, interact, and most of all have a terrifyingly good time!

Designated Play Space started out as a small student team at the University of Utah. Development ran from October 2016 to April 2017, and everything was made in house. As the first undergraduate team from the University of Utah to tackle a Virtual Reality game, we are very proud of what we were able to create. Have fun, and be wary of the dolls!

✦ AI summary

"Trapped With the Dolls VR" is a free VR horror escape room with an atmospheric dollhouse setting that some players find genuinely creepy and immersive, though others criticize it as a brief experience that relies too heavily on VR gimmicks rather than solid game design. While the visuals create effective tension for horror fans, critics note the graphics appear to use asset store materials and the gameplay boils down to simple puzzle-solving, raising concerns about overall production quality and whether the VR exclusivity masks a lack of depth in other areas.

"Trapped With the Dolls VR" is a rather mediocre VR exclusive "escape room", this time putting you into an old-timey dollhouse. Wave your arms around to escape. The game graphics look better than you might expect, but that's just because it looks like at least some of them are "borrowed" from asset stores or wherever. Gamers can tell... and it comes across as insincere. There's also the old adage that those who lack the budget and talent to make their own game assets usually lack the budget and talent to do the rest of the job of game development properly, too. It's VR exclusive, and that shows the developer failed to understand the most basic axiom of VR game design... if the only cool thing about your product is VR support, your product is not cool. Not every "free" game really is. There's often MTX, or content locked behind DLC, or donations being requested, or any other number of things that could mislead gamers, but in this case I'm glad to say this really does appear to be a fully free game. Nothing demonstrates a developers belief in themselves and their work than giving it away without any remuneration. This is a service to themselves, and the gaming industry, and …

Игра "Trapped With the Dolls VR" - это жуткий и напряженный опыт, который заставляет сердце биться чаще. Визуальное оформление выполнено на достойном уровне, создавая гнетущую атмосферу старого кукольного дома, полного скрипящих половиц и зловещих теней. Куклы выглядят действительно пугающе, и их неестественные движения добавляют ощущения постоянного наблюдения. Геймплей состоит из решения головоломок и поиска предметов, необходимых для побега, что требует внимательности и смекалки. Иммерсивность VR добавляет опыт непередаваемые ощущения, заставляя полностью погрузиться в мир игры и чувствовать себя беззащитным перед лицом опасности. Хотя игра может показаться короткой, её атмосферность и напряжение с лихвой это компенсируют. "Trapped With the Dolls VR" - отличный хоррор опыт для тех, кто ищет острых ощущений в виртуальной реальности. Рекомендую, если вы готовы к сильному испугу!

Very short (took me 5 minutes) VR horror game/experience. It's free though so sure I'll recommend it. EDIT: Okay it seems that I didn't complete the game but actually died. If you die at the tea cup challenge, try again. The part that comes after is clever and creepy.
