Description: ‘Megaton Rainfall’ is a first-person superhero game. A global alien invasion is taking place and you must face it – alone. Chase massive destruction devices at supersonic speeds around an Earth that’s as large as the real thing and populated with semi-procedurally generated cities.
Then finish off the alien devices with your lethal energy blasts. Just be careful to avoid human casualties! You are so powerful, you’ll leave a trail of collapsed buildings if you miss your targets!
Feel unprecedented freedom of movement as you fly through buildings, break the sound barrier, and accelerate to extraordinary speeds. Then rise above the atmosphere, circumnavigate the Earth in seconds, and get ready for your next battle. ‘Megaton Rainfall’ is the ultimate superhero experience!
Review: It feels like Megaton Rainfall has been in development for ages, but now it is finally here and I for one think it was well worth the wait. If you have ever dreamed of becoming a Superhero this is the game for you. It has to be said from the off that this game is incredible nauseating as flying around the environment probably would be in real life. The storyline is simple, aliens are attacking and you need to stop them over all 9 missions. The more missions you do and the more people you save the more powers you will earn. Graphically this game is amazing and while the gameplay never really changes the new powers you earn do mix things up a bit. This game is worth every penny of its £11.99 asking price and maybe a little more as well. If only every VR game was this good (including the Marvel games!)
