Mental Asylum VR Reviews

This game so short but its price cheap too so its worth it. You can experience with your headset.

Short but sweet modern extreme style house of horrors. You travel through each room in your chair, which you can wheel to the front back, and a little to the sides with your controllers. With the Rift I had to both press in and move the joystick, but the chair moves well enough if slowly. Since it's set up like a haunted asylum attraction think of set scenes, though sometimes the heavy breather showed up in random rooms. No, I didn't turn around, he could stay back there. It is a little glitchy, at times I was teleported out a room to life or death before I could enter the room itself. It also auto teleported out of rooms at times. But you can keep going back through with no lines and no wait. Well worth the current price of 99 cents USD.

I’m disappointed that the view point is like 2 feet above the character and no way to fix it. I had to sit on the floor to get to see somewhat of a good view. Plus the always dying and not having a way to heal kinda sucks.

This is one of the best scary games on the vive, plenty of atmosphere and jump scares!! But... (of course there's a but!!) ... as good as the random level generation is ( a god send for an experience like this) .. the ability to survivor the game is just as random. Also it doesn't seem to be fully optimised for VR. A 1070 should not be suffering judder at this stage of the game. The locomotion is ln't too great either, it will definitely make the inexperienced sick. Maybe if they added some like climbey grip locomotion? Sure it's work for a wheelchair. But as it stands, touch pad sucks!! Other than that, a scary well put together experience that will definitely make you shit your pants at points. A 6/10 ... Just sort that locomotion and it's a 9/10. Worth the paid for an experience.

OK so this is one of the most disturbing things I've played in VR. It seems to be randomised so you don't get the same scenes on every visit. It's a seated game where you have to guide a wheelchair bound mental patient around the asylum with the intent of escaping the horror. I had to play through a number of times before finally managing to survive. I didn't think you could initially after a couple of attempts. Each attempt is very short but brutal. Worth replaying so you can witness more and more gory scenes. Worth the entry price IMO. Moreso if you have friends to scare that aren't so keen on horror (record them and post online).

The game has potential but everything is sloppily done. There were a few jumpscares, but they were generally predictable and not scary. The first playthrough lasted less than 2 minutes and it said "you survived" - WTF??? In the game, you die and survive randomly (if that makes sense). The graphics are sometimes excellent and sometimes like a flash game... Do not buy, I refunded it after 5 minutes.

Lol, If like creepy games get it. Is short but it will make you jump of coulple of times. also it be cool to show it to your friends and watch the reactions. For $4,49, I say YES!

[b]So this game is perfect for introducing friends and family to VR. [/b] [u]Rating 6.66/10 ... I no longer have friends and my family won't speak to me[/u] https://youtu.be/6_C_aK2N0h4

Scary! Definitely gave me a few jumps like :D Should be fun to demo to friends too. I just used an xbox joypad as the thumbpads on my vive controllers are busted and that seemed to work fine. HOWEVER - know what you're buying before you go into this one. You can steer the wheelchair and thats it for controls - theres no attacks, no puzzles, just go through randomised rooms until you escape the asylum. Which I got first time with a total playtime of 3 minutes. Just seemed to be luck based om the route i took - but the 15min estimate on the store page is woefully exaggerated. Again i probably just got unlucky by esacping first time. I'm sure theres more cool jumpscares in there for a replay :)

I like the concept and the obvious effort to create an atmosphere of terror, but the method of controlling the wheelchair of the main character is terrible and takes all the life out of a game that has possibilities with more work into making one feel "there". Also some of the animations are good, but otheres (like the bats) look 2D or folded paper. Me gusta el concepto y el esfuerzo obvio para crear un ambiente de terror, pero el método de control de la silla de rueda del protagonista es terrible y saca la vida de un juego que tiene posibilidades con más trabajo de hacerse sentir “en el lugar”. Algunas animaciones son buenas, otras (como los murciélagos) se ven de dos dimensiones o hecho de papel.
