Description: Anticorps is a strategy game, management, tower defence VR. Humanity is threatened by a new type of infection, which does not kill people directly, but drives them crazy, the earth is plunged into chaos, faced with this threat of a new kind, no treatment, no medicine can stop the viruses, urgently the global health agency has developed a new technology to try to treat the sick.
The player is miniaturized in a medicine, swallowed by the patient, once the infected zone is found, the drug unfolds but the antibody is not yet active, it will be necessary to use the terrain created by the drug to create a colony, recover resources to build fixed defences that will protect the antibody as it develops.
Review: ‘Anticorps VR’ might well be one of the weirdest tower-defence style games you will ever play. In fact, it is so weird it took me almost 1 hour of playing to figure out how to play the game as the tutorial simply didn’t help much. While I call this game a tower-defence game it is a mix of genres and that is why it is so hard to learn to play. The story goes that you are inside a sick body and need to help it get over the sickness. So you build towers and other things to fight the various diseases heading towards you from the top down. While I did get used to the game in the end I just don’t think I can recommend (especially at the current asking price of £10.29) it until there is a better tutorial. A good game flawed by overly-complex gameplay (which also makes it more fun to play when you learn what to do).
