Description: Based on the Jessien’s interdisciplinary research in VR related fields over the past decade, HYPNOSIS REVERIES takes an abstract and minimalist approach to tell a story about growing. Through a 20-minute exploration experience, you will step into a mental maze, looking back at the important moments that changed you, and see yourself again.
Review: While it is pretty hard to explain ‘Hypnosis Reveries’ the best way I can put it is that this is an interactive art showcase of sorts. There are a few puzzle-like interactions here, but it is far from being a game. With its monochromatic style, the graphics hold your interest even if you are never sure what you are really looking at. Sadly it is also vastly overpriced and given that you can finish this within 10 minutes easily you might find yourself feeling a little ripped off as there is no point in replaying it once you have finished it. While I personally kind of enjoyed it I don’t feel I can recommend it unless the price is significantly lower. But if you ever see this in a really good sale do give it a look.
