The Bellows Reviews

This game is not that bad, considering it's a demo. It's scary, but only if you want it to be. But then again, that holds for every horror game out there. The player hands really need some work though. The alignment feels off (I'd rather the hands be aligned with my own hands rather than the controllers) and the skinning is absolutely terrible with fingers getting bent out of shape like a rubber doll. All in all, a promising demo, though it needs a lot of work put in to become a full-scale game.

The first "horror" experience I tried on my Vive. From the moment I started in the room where you choose your locomotion mechanic, I was hooked. I've played it a number of times since, and thoroughly enjoyed the feeling of the hairs on my neck as it unfolds. I'm running it on a G1-1070 and it looks sweet, although the black elements could do with a little work as the HMD has a strange grey output in full black which feels like diving through barely visible soup The only negative is the full locomotion option - it took me time to work out how to avoid simulator sickness, making sure to face forward whenever moving, and also rocking my head slightly from side to side to trick my vestibular system into thinking I am walking - its crude but works, and helped me enjoy this game (and other games with full locom) without suffering any nausea effects. This is a very effective piece of work, and the complimentary demo shows great potential for the full experience.
