Memories From Beyond a Coral Sea Reviews

The game was an interesting and nice looking experience with some nifty ideas. A bit short but well worth the price.

Okay so I did enjoy this experience and I do recommend it. However this is not for everybody. This game works best with room scale and you may want some room to lay down. at least once or twice. The visuals and sound are excellent. The game play is where a lot of people won't make it passed 15 min of playing. Couple of things: Controls are a little frustrating. The options to change them are very minimal. I almost jumped myself off a cliff more than once because of the controls. I'm very confused but the control choice by the devs based on what you have to do in this game but oh well. A more refined control scheme could make this a way more enjoyable experience for many people. For example, you can make your right stick smooth or snap turn. This is great! HOWEVER the right stick will still teleport walk/jump you if you move your stick too far! That's my biggest gripe with the controls. I'm using index controllers and I found it very frustrating at times to turn my character with the right stick because most of the time I would just teleport myself in the direction. Another thing that might turn some people off is the game tells you almost nothing. There are some subtle hints but I can see a lot of players getting frustrated and giving up. The beginning before the game even "starts" is a little puzzle in itself lol Again I DO recommend this game but take into account those things I mentioned above whether or not you wanna give it a go. It IS incredibly cheap so if you wanna throw a few bucks at the devs it's definitely worth the try.

Short game with some interesting/immersive gameplay and some great visuals.

An enjoyable experience that allows you to explore at your own pace. The paddling was totally worth it.

A fun, short experience that's really immersive and well narrated.

A delightful small experience of exploring the deserted islands and hearing the story unfold. Pacing of the story with puzzles and chilling out on the sea is spot on. There was a usual amount of VR jank with Index: grabbing stuff required a death grip for quite some time, the controllers buzzed almost constantly, and I had to drop refresh rate to 90 Hz at some point when the stereo rendering went out of sync. But no big blockers.

This game is very has some really innovative mechanics (i.e. the inventory system) and visually stunning. Highly recommend. There was a recent patch that supposedly added smooth locomotion but I cannot figure out how to enable that. Does anyone know how to enable? Snigelsoft?

Well polished. A bit short - I'd recommend it if you can get it on sale. Consider it an appetiser for the next instalment. Note: You lie on the floor at two points and it adds a surprising amount to the immersion!

What a fantastic experience. This was so much better than many VR games. I was absolutely invested in the world of this game. The visuals are also some of the best that I've seen, and this is THE best water I have ever seen in VR. Well done. This is outside of my normal gaming preferences, but I'd gladly sink hours into a longer version of something like this.

Amazing game, great narrated story, lots of exploration, a bit of survival with nice graphics at an incredible price. I highly recommend everyone to buy and experience this gem of a game. Cant believe that this is done by such a small team of friends in their free time. A great idea absolutely well executed. It took me exactly 2 hours to play through it once and I tried to find everything and try everything - I bet there is more to see even tho I was very thorough! I would like to see the game add Steam Achievements for things found, crafted, tried, deaths etc.
