Description: SteamDolls is a steampunk inspired adventure game with a touch of stealth and built from the ground up for VR. You assume the role of a cunning thief and anarchist known as “The Whisper” and make your way through heavily secured environments. Stick to the shadows and avoid getting caught by the guards as you struggle with the haunting apparitions of a mesmerizing witch trying to reveal the truth about a conspiracy that could shake the very foundation of the world.
Review: SteamDolls VR was going to be some super-sized horror adventure and at the start, it showed real promise. Even the demo version of the game lasted over 30 mins! But sadly it is only the demo version that remains of a game that will probably never see the light of day now. Which if you ask me is quite annoying. It had so much going for it. It looks great, it had some good looking character animations and the SteamPunk atmosphere was deeply immersive. But it seems it was never meant to be, but do take a look at the dem for what this game could have been because even that alone is worth seeing.
