Review: I am a little disappointed with myself while reviewing this game as I really wanted to enjoy it, but I simply couldn’t. Orion13 is supposed to be an all-action VR hack’n’slash but it is way too slow-paced for that. I can look past the low-poly artsy style of the graphics as it is the gameplay that should have carried this game and put simply it just doesn’t. You can finish this game in less than a few hours so the current £15.49 asking price isn’t great neither. I do still think this game has a lot of potential and for the right price I would still take a look, but it could have easily been so much better from the off.
