Description: You are Timothy Collins. You arrive home late from work and enter your house. At first the silence is so deep, you realise that none of your family is home. But then there’s a creak in the walls and a chill down your back. The voices in the dark are almost familiar. Your home reverberates with revenge. MORTEM wants to play with you. Her favourite game is Hide and Seek, but beware, it comes with deadly consequences, and she might not have come alone. Toggle your lights on and off, watch out for her friend Vindicta, run and stop. Explore the house and the woods owned by the prestigious Collins family. The question is, who will survive?
Review: Let’s get the pricing of ‘MORTEM – VR Edition’ out of the way first. This VR update of sorts does only cost £0.79, but you still need to own or pay for the original game which costs £3.99. It is very clear from the start that this was a failed horror game given a VR add-on to try and sell more copies. Sadly the game is still the same crap game that no-one brought in the first place! The game is supposed to be a hide-and-go-seek game in which you try and last for 10 minutes. But if you don’t seek you can win the game just standing still for that length of time! I normally like all VR horrors no matter how poorly they are made, but this is too crap even for me to recommend.
