Description: Immerse yourself in the beautifully hand-drawn world of The Lost Bear, help Walnut on her journey home through a mysterious land corrupted by the Snatcher – an ancient creature who devours children’s dreams. Play using a unique combination of fully realised 3D VR environments and 2D Platforming to solve puzzles and guide Walnut home! As you progress on your journey you will discover six unique environments in both 2D and VR, use intuitive VR interactions that really connect you to the world and face a host of deadly creatures that need all your wits to defeat to help Walnut escape.
Review: This isn’t the biggest of games, nor is it the best use of VR. But I have to say I still found The Lost Bear to be an oddly magical experience. While essentially a 2D platformer this game has a deeper, more immersive feel to it than anything that has gone before it. Sure, it doesn’t last long, but that time it does last makes it well worth the asking price and well worth playing. An odd game and use of VR for sure, but something I would like to see done in many other games.
