Description: Our designers have created immersive experiences for you to really make the most of what virtual reality has to offer. Clear sound effects, lifelike depiction of wild nature, open space feel and genuinely funny characters with their comic expressions give Jingo the best virtual reality game features on the market.
The world is at war and when war has been waged against us, we will either fight or live in defeat. All the players in the game portray characters from various nations. It is a game where different nations fight each other. Essentially, the game can somewhat be described as World War because this is what our ancestors have always rubbed elbows with – constantly fighting another nations.
Review: Jingo is what I presume is the worlds first turn-based action game in VR. Think of the classic game of worms, only in VR. While I like the idea of this I just didn’t feel that it worked well. It was just so…boring. Maybe it is all the other, faster-moving action games I have played that have spoiled me, but I wanted to rush around and kill all the other characters. Maybe it was the lack of attack by the AI who just seemed happy to die, or the poor quality graphics that put me off recommending it, but whatever it was the current asking price of £7.19 is little more than a joke. If you still like the sound of this game I would try and get it for a few quid at most.
