Description: Across Flash is a shoot-em-up glider VR game developed by Uborm Technology Inc. It contains several essentials, such as flight, shooting, and etc. You will guide one of two unique fighter crafts and explore a once-great civilization that has fallen to ruin. Fly and battle through desolate arctic extremes, blustering desert ruins, scalding lava relic, or alien ecology. What led to the destruction of it? Battle unique foes, survive hostile environments, all in an effort to figure out what happened to this lost civilization.
In the game, you can not only experience the speed of flight but also implement playing methods with Buffs, just like shooting, transformation and etc. End stages with giant boss battles, you can collect power cube left by colossus to upgrade your ships. Survive as long as you can to achieve ever-higher scores, and quickly rejoin the action after each death to attempt an even greater score than before.
Review: Across Flash is an endless runner sort of game in which you need to last as long as possible by dodging things and even taking down the odd boss which does offer a little bit of variety at least. Sadly, it is not often I will tell you that £1.99 is overpriced, but I really do think it is when it comes to this game. The quality just isn’t there and just feels like the 80’s version of afterburner with VR bolted on for the laughs and it just didn’t work for me. If you see this in a super cheap bundle maybe give it a go, otherwise it really isn’t worth your time.
