Description: HeadCount is an action-packed bullet-hell VR shooter currently in early access with a focus on old-school arcade action with an approachable gameplay style that anyone can just jump in and start playing right away in vibrant, stylized battlefields.
Review: ‘HeadCount’ is a pretty average on-rails shooter in which you play the role of a military soldier taking down all manner of Arab bad-guys. Sure, this isn’t going to win any game of the year awards nor will it blow you away with its low-poly graphics. But for just £3.99 you get some good gameplay here. I like the way it moves, I like the arcade-style shooting that goes on and I like that it is a one-button reload. Sometimes all you want is a fun little shooter and that is what this game is with just enough content and options to justify its own price tag.
