Description: In the slow motion bullet-hell of Blaston, you duck, dodge and weave to evade incoming attacks while preparing your dazzling next combos in a flash of skill. You feel like Neo and leave each session with your heart racing – super fun tactical workout. Most importantly, Never. Stay. Still.
Review: While it is a little hard to describe ‘Blaston’ it is a player VS Player battle game in which you need to shoot your opponent. While that sounds simple the bullets all move in slow motion, so you need to keep moving, al the while not moving that fast at all. In VR it looks great and the joy of bending out of the way of a bullet ball makes you feel as if you are in the Matrix. While there is a single-player mode, you can also play online, but apparently not with friends which is a bit weird. While there isn’t a lot of content here at all given the lack of online players I still feel this game is worth the full £7.19 due to how polished it looks and how much fun it is to play. I loved it and easily recommend it, especially to those of us who loved Superhot.
