Description: Yoren is the first cutting-edge realistic VR magic game. Cast spells by drawing rune gestures, explore the openworld collecting crafting ingredients for potions and battle the numerous bosses of fallen kingdoms in the world of Yoren.
Review: On the whole ‘Yoren’ is a pretty good magic casting action game in which you will be fighting all manner of undead, monsters and even some evil giant trees. The graphics are at times really good and then fail miserably when it comes to the animation side of things with some of the enemies look decidedly fake and many of the environments too blurry for their own good. Even the gameplay is pretty good, especially the magic spell casting, it was a lot of fun. But the lack of content is what puts me off recommend this to you. Sure, there is a fair amount to do here, but definitely now worth the current £15.49 asking price and probably not even half of that. It is indeed worth a look, but it needs a lot more content and a bit more polish before it is something I could recommend.
