Full Crack [pack] A really cool game!! :)Most of all I like the way to walk and play with the Orbs: i'ts not so easy to throw in exact the right point. Thats why u even have more fun and sport when u go through the tunnel (I was really bad at throwing but it gets better...).If u don't know what to do, there're many humorous explanations in the hallways. They're sometimes maybe too detailed but good to have for the first game. Now the riddles: the first ones are really easy but at the latest in the fourth level it get's really difficult and tricky. That's because the first lasers only go through the hallways, but then they follow u so fast, that u have to crawl on the ground, jump or hide behind some boxes. With enough space in your livingroom u can get so much fun and probably look crazy to the viewers.... :D For all of u who really love riddles, are tired of boring shooters and really want to go INSIDE a VR it's the perfect game to start!! I really love it :). You definitely get more than you expect in this game. Throwing stuff around all of the time is fun once you get the hang of it, but frantically avoiding lasers is even better. It's no AAA title, but still feels pretty polished.. The game looks really it's a relatively original idea (from what I know). However, the game is not difficult, but tedious. You cana try it for yourself, since this is a personal thing, but I do not recommend it.. Awesome action-puzzle game!Orb Labs, Inc. is a fresh breeze in the world of VR games.It can be best described as (action-)puzzle and with that definitely reminds me of "Portal" in some moments.The main mechanics of this game is throwing orbs. It is easy at first if you accept a certain variance of your target position. The fun challenge is to master this throwing technique, becoming faster and more precise, which will help you beat later levels, especially on higher difficulties. Later in the game you really feel like some kind of orb-ninja :)Another great plus of this mechanics is the immersion. You really feel like getting the hands on a new technology. Teleporting becomes reasonable (to some extend), unlike traditional "point-and-click"-navigation. And each new orb (cover, decoy, ...) adds to this experience.Speaking of which, using the different types of orbs to get around the puzzle rooms requires good thinking and even action-packed evasion moves. You teleport, hear the alarm, crawl behind a box, grab the decoy orb,...But there is always a multitude of possible solutions and an extra challenge is to get to the floors with as few orbs as possible. Due to fairly distributed checkpoints ("reconstruction machines") the frustration is reasonably low (most of the time ;)) and you are always eager to try "just one more time".You wouldn't expect a deep story in that kind of game, but infiltrating an underground lab to uncover the shady experiments of a company is enough to get me going. Plus, there is even more backstory to discover, if you have the patience to read each and every hint on your way down ;)After the story mode, you can try a higher difficulty, explore the floors for all the collectables and then... try the challenge mode, my personal highlight! Beating each level as fast as you can with only a few orbs is so thrilling and... well, challenging... I love it! Come, beat my WR :)Polished gameplay, nice graphics, innovative ideas... and it's only a few dollars!Definitely check it out!. 6\/10Fun until about level 10, where it is just too hard to play using these rubbish vive wands (which are not built for accurate VR throwing).Also, runs like a turd on my 2080ti super-system. Level 10 drops to a continual 15fps! Be warned.. Great Game - I loved the new concept of moving (hiding from lasers) by throwing so-called "Orbs". You have to figure out how to get through a secret lab that is full of dangerous lasers. Even though the visiuals and the music are quite dark, it isn't a scary game - more like a mixture of a puzzle and skill focused game. It incorporates a nice background story and plenty of jokes. I am enjoying it very much! For all those who are sensitive to cyber sickness - I am too, but this game did not trigger it at all! :-). It's a lot of fun, feels pretty polished, and makes you think. Throwing is, obviously a big piece of it. I can see why some say the throwing is "off" but I can tell you by flubs were my own. I think the throwing is fine. I'm not through the story yet entirely but if it can be expanded with new challenges\/puzzles\/story\/content it might compete a bit with Portal. I use a vive and had zero sickness. Again it's fun and creative. Definitely recommend.. If you don't like throwing in VR, this game is not for you. If you are totally frustrated by dying and having to retry the last few seconds, this game may also not be for you. You will die a lot (but there are so many savegame spots in the game that you really only have to repeat the last few seconds). For everyone else: it's a ton of fun!The game is a unique mixture of skill (throwing), puzzle-solving (get past those lasers without losing too many orbs) and action (jump against your furniture trying to take cover). You will constantly be trying to beat that last\/next situation. And it's such a good feeling to reach that elevator! :-)After about 3 hours, I'm about halfway through the game, so the 5+ hours are probably ok. Which makes this game a pretty good value. There's also a back-story, but I skipped that, so I don't know whether it's any good. Negative points: the decorations and sound are a bit repetitive, which makes it hard to orient yourself, the alarms are extremely loud, and sometimes stuff glares too much.
