Description: For generations, the High Mountain has preserved its reputation as one shrouded in mystery. Its origin remains unknown, its interiors remain unseen. The dreadful sierra holds many secrets bound to be unraveled by one brave, or rather, reckless adventurer. Thou, come forth and let the world know of treasures that no eye has ever set its sight on before. Exploration is nigh.
High Mountain Roller Coaster VR is a trip into the very depths of the unknown. Prepare to see a world like no other in one of the most immersive roller coaster experiences in Virtual Reality to date. The tracks will be your guide, embrace their path and they will reward your curious eyes.
Review: I’m happy to admit that I personally like my VR coaster rides. The good news is ‘High Mountain Roller Coaster VR’ is one of the better-looking coasters I have ridden. With some nice background and foreground scenery and some good textures, it seems a lot of thought has gone into making this. But sadly it all falls apart when it comes to the unnecessary levels of nausea with not a single banked curve to reduce it. But the lack of sound effects and music really make this ride pretty terrible. It’s still worth a look if you ask me, but I would put on your own music to make it a little more immersive.
