Description: TAG WAR is a team-based multiplayer VR game which is about “Scanner and Barcode”. The player using VR controller to control the scanner in-game. Scanning the barcode on the item to get it, and scan the barcode on the enemy to defeat him. Whenever you scan a barcode a payment will add to your team’s bill. When a match is over the team with higher expenses win.
Review: I have to say games don’t get much weirder than ‘TAG WAR VR’. On the whole, I really like the game. It looks good and is an absolute hoot to play. But sadly as soon as it was released the servers were empty meaning the multiplayer side of things was dead and that only left the single-player game aginst bots and to be honest they are pretty crappy and don’t really do much for the game at all. Then there is the question on price. £11.39 is just too much without a dedicated single-player mode and even 50% of that is still a tad too much. If you can get it on the cheap and invite a few friends to play it as well you will enjoy playing it, but on your own, you will struggle to get any real value or enjoyment out of it. Still…kudos to the developer for coming up with such an original game.
