Description: Guard of Wonderland is a VR-novel created from our inspirations of “Alice in Wonderland”; a tribute of respect and love for the author’s talent. Here is the atmosphere of absurdity and, at the same time, the beauty of the world in the book, but with new characters and an unconventional look at the story of Wonderland. Adventures will reveal a terrible story, where phantasmagoria, influenced under the impression of the book, intertwines with the eerie reality of our world!
Review: While I found myself smiling at the art of this game with its graphical novel style there are far too many things I don’t like about it. My first big problem with ‘Guard of Wonderland VR’ is that I am not sure what this game was trying to be. It’s like a weird mess of genres with nothing standing out above the other. The 2nd has to be annoying text blocks. It’s hard enough to read things in our VR headsets at the best of times, but when it is shoved in your face it’s rather annoying. I have no idea how long the game is because I just couldn’t go on, it really is that bad. I expect a lot more form a game that costs £11.39 and this game has a long way to go before I could recommend it (at any price point).
