Description: Play paintball against other players in VR or take a virtual tour of where President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dealey Plaza located in Dallas, Texas. You can play the game with Oculus or Vive desktop headsets, or just Xbox and computer screen or just computer screen and keyboard and mouse.
You appear in the oval office and choose whether or not you want to play on the Republican or Democrat team in a scored game of paintball, or you can go in and just walk around and explore the site of the assassination of JFK. The game has all the important places related to his assassination.
Review: I’m not sure what was going on inside the developers head when they made ‘Dealey Plaza Paintball’ but it seems they had two ideas for games and then tried to merge the two together with disastrous results. On the one hand, they wanted a sci-fi paint shooter game where players could take on each other for points. Then in the other hand, you have an educational tour of Dealey Plaza (located in Dallas, Texas) which is the sight of the JFK shooting. Neither of these is worth the current £3.99 asking price and sadly they would be hard to recommend this even if it was free. There are better ways to spend your money than on this that is for sure.
