"VR INTERACTIVE TRAILER: Runes" is not a game. It's an advertisement for a product called "Runes". Runes is a simple, short VR exclusive action game where you wave your arms around to "cast spells", which was largely a failure, to the point the developers gave up (but at least made it free). But that raises the question, then, why is it good for gamers to have this short advertisement in place for something that's free? If ou want to play Runes (spoiler: Almost nobody wanted to play Runes), just download it. This advert is no longer serving the original purpose of trying to get you to shell out a whopping TWENTY FIVE BUCKS to buy Runes (yes, they really thought they could get that much money off gamers!). But this isn't completely relevant because this is not Runes, it's just an advertisment for it, so it's not correct to try to review that completely distinct product. We must instead review this for what it is... an advertisement. If you enjoy advertisements, you can consume them for free on the web or on Youtube without needing to add them to your game library, download them, and then launch the advertising. It's impossible in a general sense to recommend people should…

VR INTERACTIVE TRAILER: Runes is a free VR VR INTERACTIVE TRAILER for the new game Runes. It worked on my system, looked ok, played ok, sounded ok. It did have an interactive part where you are shooting fire bolts and tossing fire balls, at oncoming enemy targets for a minute. It was around 7 minutes in total. I think the story and graphics that was in the trailer, did make me interested into trying the game. The voice acting was pretty good. They should have put the whole date that the game releases in the beginning and store page, so we can know that this is old and not worth downloading. The game was released in 14 Nov. 2018. Or pulled this trailer from the store after the game release. Try this or not, that is the question now. Better to actually play the Free game, since it has released in Nov 2018.

VR INTERACTIVE TRAILER: Runes is an unusual virtual reality experience that sits somewhere between a playable demonstration and an immersive advertisement. Developed and published by StormBorn Studio, it was created as an interactive introduction to Runes: The Forgotten Path rather than as a complete standalone adventure. Its purpose is straightforward: instead of showing potential players a conventional video trailer, it places them directly inside the fantasy setting and allows VR itself to become part of the presentation. This makes the experience interesting from a historical and experimental perspective, even though its actual amount of playable content is quite limited. The experience introduces players to the world surrounding Leth, a renegade wizard and the central character of the larger adventure. Magic, mysterious environments, and a strong fantasy atmosphere are at the heart of the presentation. Rather than spending considerable time explaining the story through lengthy dialogue or exposition, the trailer concentrates on giving players a taste of what inhabiting this world feels like. Environmental scale becomes particularly important in VR because locations and charac…

Игра 'VR INTERACTIVE TRAILER: Runes' - это интересный, хотя и короткий VR-опыт. Графика выглядит неплохо, особенно окружение, и погружает в атмосферу. Интерактивность минимальна, скорее это демо, чем полноценная игра, но задумка с рунами интригует. Хотелось бы больше взаимодействия с миром и более развернутый сюжет. Управление простое и интуитивно понятное, что хорошо для новичков в VR. В целом, 'Runes' - это неплохой способ познакомиться с возможностями VR, но из-за своей краткости оставляет ощущение незавершенности. Рекомендую к ознакомлению, если она бесплатна или стоит совсем недорого, но не ждите глубокого геймплея. Потенциал у проекта огромный, и если разработчики продолжат в этом направлении, может получиться отличная VR-игра.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
