Description: ‘AFFECTED: The Manor’ is a Horror Walk-through Experience that has been commended as one of the best Virtual Reality experiences to date! With over 200 million YouTube hits and countless features worldwide the most popular horror experience in VR is now available for PS VR. With no obstructive VR game mechanics such as finding a key or solving a puzzle to progress, you, the player are left to be completely immersed in ‘The Manor’. Keeping game mechanics to a minimum also enables players with no gaming background to fully enjoy our experience, meaning anybody will be able to play ‘AFFECTED: The Manor’.
With a choice of two routes and four alternate endings… can you make it through! All of the above has shaped “AFFECTED: The Manor” into what it is today an immersive, easy to play experience that you will want your friends to play as much as you want to play yourself.
Review: Sadly Affected: The Manor is not perfect and very short indeed. With some very predictable jump scares, distracting music, visuals that are at times a little too dark and an un-natural touch controller holding make it feel nowhere near as good as the Oculus Rift version. While there are indeed some problems with this experience. But the beautifully dark atmosphere and the scarily deep immersion more than makes up for those flaws. Make no bones about it, this is as scary as VR experiences get. Yes, you will be screaming, you will feel your heart racing and at times you will want it all to stop. But at least you only have to hang in there a short amount of time. Definitely one to troll your friends and family with.
