Dark Invasion VR Reviews

[h1]Experienced on the Meta Quest 2[/h1] You can view my initial impressions review & gameplay here: https://youtu.be/UCkLZ-w1qRU I do think this is a solid zombie wave shooter. I would say it's better than most zombie shooters out there, but a notch or two below the best, like the Living Remain or Arizona Sunshine. I wouldn't even compare it to TWDSS, because it's not anywhere close to being that good. However, keep in mind, this is a budget zombie wave shooter survival type game. So it's not really fair to compare it to titles that are priced much higher or with triple A budgets. There really isn't a story. You can choose one of 5 levels as soon as you clear the level. You can choose the difficulty, easy, medium, or hard. There's different types of zombies and different weapons including handgun, shotgun, & assault rifle. You can even use melee weapons (that break easily) or grenades. You have limited ammo & manual reloads can be scary because zombies will mess you up while you're trying to reload. Game is running on the Unity Engine. On high graphical settings, on my RTX 3080, I was getting a steady 90 fps. You have full locomotion, as well as smooth or snap turning options. Unfortunately, I found the smooth turning to be too slow. You can play seated, but I don't recommend it because you do have to reach for some items. Overall, I did have fun playing this game. The gun mechanic is pretty solid, except that it can be difficult to reload the shotgun when you're surrounded. It has too little ammo as well. Your holster space is very limited. The biggest difficulty in this game is just being able to grab certain items & being able to reload while being chased. Lastly, this game is still in Early Access. There haven't been any updates in about a year. I don't know if the game has been abandoned, however, I am rating the game as is. I think it's a solid game for the budget price. [b]Rate 7/10. I bought this game on a Steam sale for $7 USD and think it's a nice bargain at that price. You really won't find better zombie shooters in this price range.[/b] [quote]If you enjoyed my review, please consider joining my Steam Curator Group.

UPDATE 3: smooth turning works now. Great! Nice graphics and artstyle and cut-scenes (way better than Arizona Sunshine imho). The movement style is awesome: walking with thumbsticks, and sprint activation by moving the arms up and down fastly. It's very early access at the time of this review, but it definately has potiential. UPDATE 1: developer added improved sprinting activation, no need for thumbstick button press anymore UPDATE 2: changed to recommended, as the dev is working on smooth turning actively.

There are some problems with the movement but devs are working on the sequel and will update this one as well. Its deeply underrated and overlooked. Its up there with the best zombie shooters in vr.
