I didn’t pick much up in last year’s Winter Sale, but this year I went a little mad. First up – VR games!
I played the demo of Hubris a year or so ago (?) and it seemed okay, so when I saw it on sale for only 6 quid, I figured it was worth a spin. As someone who likes the Metro games (but doesn’t love them) I thought Metro Awakening would be worth a try on sale.
And then we have Red Matter and Moss, two quite highly regarded (but older) VR games. And finally there’s Ghost Town a fairly recent release from the same people who made The Room VR which I liked but felt was rather limited, so I’m curious to see if this one builds upon that experience.
Next up is No, I’m Not a Human which I played a demo of during the Summer Next Fest and quite liked, so I’m curious to see how the full release shakes out. And during the same Next Fest I also played a demo of (and really enjoyed) Dispatch so this was an easy buy.
As a big fan of Doom: Eternal I wasn’t sure if I’d like the new approach to combat in Doom: The Dark Ages but I’m certainly willing to give it a shot.
RV There Yet? is something I picked up cheap to play with a friend. Has good reviews, but no idea if we’ll enjoy it. And finally we have Coral Island which my friend gifted me. I enjoyed Stardew Valley so I’ve been interested in trying this out for a while but I don’t know when I’ll have time to get stuck into it.
