Detective VR: NFT secret Files Reviews

Let's clarify the main goal of the game: you have to retrieve six pages of a diary and put them ordered by date on a wooden board in order to know how an art hoarder disappeared from Earth. Albeit the riddles are far-fetched, the game is very short. Also, it wants you to solve the puzzles in the order it wants you to follow, meaning that the help obtained by gesturing the fingers will be irrelevant most of the time. The whole story is explained in the retrieved pages, but they are such walls of text that I didn't bother trying to go in depth. Also, the French translation is littered with "\n" symbols, meaning the carriage return lines fail to be interpreted. Also, the controls are complete garbage: I struggled to understand that I had to just touch the analog sticks in order to confirm that I want to move. Only to get out of bounds. A €5 game, tops.

As others have stated, controls are clunky, audio is horrible, and the game is very short. I mourn the 90 minutes of life I lost playing this game.

The graphics are nice. Teleport only which is immersion breaking. The scale feels way of. I feel like gandalf looking for frodo. The interaction with objects are simple as best. Some of the background music sounds like a horror game, Sadly this game did not keep me immersed for very long

For one, it's not worth the price. A very badly developed and lacking real interaction type of game. Just some small examples for starters. If you pick up an object from one room to use it as a "reference", and carry to another room and accidentally miss click. That object will return to its original location and not just drop to the floor with real animation etc. The sound is very bad and no real ambient feel and just stop, restart when you teleport to another location 1-2 feet away lol. - no locomotion - sound quality is like wav (no ambient transitions in same area after teleporting) - poorly optimized with graphical tearing or stuttering - 50% of objects are interactive, and the 50% that are only have minor movement I refunded **HTC Vive Pro user

EDIT: The 80 fps lock has now been removed, and the game works perfectly also in 90, 120 and 144 Hz. With an RTX 3090 I can now use res 450% in solid 90 fps, but it works best with no motion smoothing. The game looks and performs mindblowingly awesome. There's no finger tracking, but lighting and textures etc. are of the highest quality. Also no full locomotion, but like Room VR you're here to solve puzzles - there's teleport though and snap turning. Unfortunately I should have eaten more veggies as a kid to grow a larger brain, lol, so I'm still working on the *prolonged dry cough!* puzzles. There's a hint system, but I'm stubborn - I need no help, lol. If you never use the hint system, this game may easily last for 5 - 10 hours... Do get this game if you like Room VR, Detective VR should work on many rigs (using res 200 % I bet a GTX 1080 is fine too). My rating for now - 8/10, but I need to crack to puzzles... Res 450% didn't cause more than 10GB vram use according to fpsVR, so res 200% should be safe for 8GB vram cards. My rig: Asus Strix OC RTX 3090, i9 10900K, 32GB 3200Mhz, Samsung SSD 860 EVO 4TB and Win 10 Pro.

Not fun; controls are very finicky, and the game is relatively short, but the game length is extended by illogical, very difficult puzzles, frustrating hint system, and another VR game where you are simply wandering aimlessly. Very limited play area (only two rooms), horrible movement controls; simply stated this game is one of the worse VR games that I have played (and I have been playing VR games for years). Not a well developed game..... poorly optimized, audio is terrible, and definitely not worth 19.99 or 16.99! I am using HTC vive Pro with state of the art PC and Nvidia 3080 ti card.

Just started, but the flow of which puzzles to solve next is not clear. You get clues, but they don't seem to be progressive or logical based on the puzzle you just solved. Will update more later. Update. Did I pass the game? I don't know. I only solved a couple of easy puzzles ant then went upstairs and viewed a cut-scene and it booted me to the main menu. Very short if that was all there was to it.

'Detective VR: NFT Secret Files' is a puzzle room style game in which you play the role of an amateur detective trying to find out what happened to someone who collects NFTs. To be fair the game looks good and the puzzles should offer a challenge even to the most hardened of puzzle room players. Just be aware that I have no idea how much content there is because I got stuck in the first room because there is no hint system in place, so you really do have to figure it all out as you go along. I'm not sure about the price yet, but I will give it a thumbs up for now and crack on with it till the end and update this review when done.
