I really enjoyed playing this game! The visuals are impressive and make you feel like you’re really immersed in the world and really committed to finding the refugees and the starfish. Fighting the monsters was the perfect combination of fun and suspenseful. I also liked that there were different running speeds and types of movement in the game. I hope more people learn about this game! It’s very novel and addicting!
Great project! Looking forward to seeing more content.
Great game
Great game for the price. Once I got into it, I had a really good time. I did have a little bit of setup friction at the start with my gamepad, and the controller vibration on landing took a few minutes to get used to but neither was a big deal once I started playing. The tutorial throws a lot at you initially, but it clicks quickly in practice. After that, I was fully in. I genuinely felt like Indiana Jones exploring ancient ruins. The music is excellent, and the story is entertaining and pulls you along. Overall, a fun and memorable experience, especially for the price.
I loved my first exploration of Vribyss Refuge. The story is very compelling. and I liked being able to pause and read the dialogue. It gave extra meaning to playing the game. The movement is great, and I especially appreciated the tips, which helped me learn to use many tools to navigate.
This game is entertaining and it has purpose beyond the gaming platform. The gaming aspects check out really well and it continuously gives a high sense of adventure. Really enjoyed it. Great job.
