Description: Phantasma is a VR PUZZLE GAME (inspired by the mechanics featured in” the 7th Guest” or “the 11th Hour”) with a strong narrative where you step into the shoes of a deranged mind searching for the truth about a conspiracy involving the entire entertainment industry, and a TV Show hosted by an annoying Bunny called Flappy. Resolve abstract puzzles using bizarre videos and dig deeper as the story unfold. But more importantly: ARE YOU A GOOD BUNNY? ArE YOU a GooD BuNNy? ARE you A good BUNNY?!?
Review: Phantasma VR reminds me a lot of the Donnie Darko films. It’s that same weirdness mixed in with an escape room style game, but also some adventure elements to keep things flowing. What I love most about Phantasma VR is that it does keep your interest, the game flows beautiful and you always want to go on just to see what is around the next corner. But to be warned, this is not an easy game at all, in fact, it is downright solid in some parts and the normal rules you use to solve other escape room games need to be thrown away here which also give the game an original feel to it. Its definitely worth the £7.19 asking price and one of those games that you treasure in your collection, even if no-one else has heard of it.
