OlympicVR Reviews

Amazing game. I really loved easter eggs. Recommended

[h1] Experienced on the Oculus Rift with Touch Controllers [/h1] This review is simple. Stay away from this garbage. I was so disgusted after playing the tutorial and then the first two Olympic events that I just quit. The game is horrible and not fun to play. There's nothing good about it, except the store page video. They probably spent more time & money on the store page video than actually making a good game. So why the hate? Well, it's buggy as hell for starters. I was barely able to complete the tutorial. My runner would stop running for no apparent reason even though I was doing the same motion. My climber would fall for no apparent reason even though I was holding on to the appropriate ledge, just random falls. The bow mechanic is the worst one I have ever seen in any game. The UI was messed up on the Oculus, I had to press down on the joystick and select trigger to select items. Did I mention they want your name, e-mail, and password to register before you can play? I hate that I gave them a real e-mail. I hope I don't get spammed by them. Luckily, I used a name and password that I never use for anything. So after the tutorial everything is locked and you can start your Olympic event. Okay, fair enough. Except all the same problems exist. My runner stopped running for whatever reason, although I managed to finish 3rd. Then the skeet event happened. So I pick up my handgun .... to shoot a low effort polygon art that's a skeet I suppose or a UFO ... it's round and brightly tri-colored .... and my gun won't shoot. It's also at the wrong angle. I decide I've had enough. This is garbage. I had zero fun in any part of the 17 minutes I tried to enjoy this game. I don't like asking for refunds but this game is so bad I feel that I'm 100 justified when something so low effort is put on the Steam storepage. Shame on an Akalus who gave this a positive review. Rate 3/10.

The concept for this game seemed really good, but sadly it is not executed well at all. The controls are terribly... wonky. To run you have to bob your head up and down, which obviously doesn't work well when you have something strapped to your head... like a VR headset. The controls for things like javelins and the guns in skeet is also terrible. The skeet gun is positioned horrible, like if you were to hold a shotgun with only 3 fingers. The javelin is also at a very akward angle. There is next to no tutorial for anything. If you mess up even slightly you are basically invalidated. Not at all reccomended. Perhaps in the future it will be better, but for now it isn't good at all.
