Review: I will start this review with some kudos to the developers of the game Smartmelon. This is a FANTASTIC use of VR that I would never have thought about in a million years. It’s unique as well as amazing, both graphically and gameplay-wise. The idea of the game is simple, you go off on an adventure and you might have to kill a few bad guys along the way with your trusted sword. But all the puzzles that you will come across in the game are solved with miniature worlds which is a nice touch. Sadly it is the action of the game that lets it down and it just feels fake AF. It’s like it is a pointless addition to a genius game. I’m going to say the game is still probably worth the £7.19 asking price, but grabbing it in a sale will be best.
