Description: If you ever wanted to become a mage, Sorcerers of Kinetics is the game for you. SoK is built from ground up for the HTC Vive: Dive into a world full of magic and fight against enemies in a multiplayer online open-world battle arena to gain experience points and gold. Unlock new spells in a unique skill-based system that incorporates real physical components. SoK is a multiplayer game but it also contains stuff that you can do on your own if you have to wait for other players. ===Level, gold and skills===By attacking players of the other team you’ll receive experience points. If you get enough points, you will level up and increase stats like health points. If your level is high enough you could be on the leaderboard. You also receive gold to buy new weapons and skills and increase your spell damage. It will take ingenuity and time to train your skills to reach the highest level which continues to increase with new spells and weapons. ===Skill system===SoK has a really interactive skill system. While you are attacking, we promise you that you will not stand still for a second. The skill system based on the five elements: fire, water, earth, air and arcane. In the skill menu, you can choose five skills from all the spells you have unlocked so far for your next round.
Review: Sadly this is yet another game that has been abandoned and left for dead. It was going to be some big, open-world adventure, but yet it seems that dream was soon forgotten and now all that remains is a demo of the game that shows you just how unfished and basic it was. When you compare games like this to the VR games we have nowadays like The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim VR it kind of pains in comparison, so it is probably best it was left for dead.
