Description: Have you ever wanted to be a samurai? On this beautiful archipelago high in the clouds, you can make your dreams come true. You will follow the instructions of Delios-Sensei, your only friend out there. He will teach you how to progress in the warrior’s way and explore the secrets of Zen. Archery, Katana moves, throwing arts and many other practices await you. And if you need rest, take a stroll around the islands to enjoy panoramas in front of a beautiful sunset.
With fair scoring mechanics, and arcade style gameplay, it’s a perfect game to have fun in your house parties. Sky Sanctuary is not a limited experience, there is fun beyond game modes. Test weapons, multiple interactions are directly designed to let you play the way you want without any rules. This is the good thing about VR.
Review: Sky Sanctuary is a small collection of ninja-style games. OK, there are only two of them, one is archery the other is swordplay. It all takes place in a rather peaceful temple and you have to shot this, slice that over and over again with a goal of doing better and better. But that is about all it is and for £9.99 there is no way I could recommend it. But if you see it for a quid or less I would pick it up. Its, not a terrible game at all, just very shallow when it comes to gameplay.
