Description: WANDS is a first-person VR experience that offers fast-paced magic duels against other players online. Equip your wand with a wide variety of spells and battle other Wielders for fame, power, and glory in the fantastic realms of The Beyond. Explore new spells and hone your skills in your secret workshop in between battles.
Review: Wands is a fantastic looking game with a great depth of customisation. While sadly online play only with no single-player options at all the online element at least is very strategic, almost to the point that it is an action game of chess. When this game is at its best is when there are people to battle and they are all playing aggressively rather than strategically, then this game shines like a magic wand and the action becomes so engrossing you will find yourself losing hours at a time. This was a good game on the Gear VR but running on our PCVR headsets the faster pace and better graphics make it that extra bit special.
