At this weekend, TheGamer was invited to try out a ton of new games. Some highly anticipated, like Final Fantasy VII Remake, and some gems that are completely under the radar, like DEEER Hunter. The most confusing game we played 🐽at PA🅺X West, without a shadow of a doubt, was
Granted, with a name like that, you have to sort of expect something a little out there. Groundhog Day VR is a sequel to the iconic 1993 Bill Murray comedy in which Phil Connors is stuck in a time loop that sees him perpetually. In Like Father Like Son, you play as Connor's🎃 son, Phil Jr., who has also, unsurprisingly, found himself repeat𒁃ing Groundhog Day over, and over again.
When I was told the developer's were huge fan's of the film and had written a script some 400 pages long, I was intrigued. My mind raced with possibilities while I watched the intro cinematic the re-introduced classic character from the film like Ned Ryerson. I imagined living a day in a virtual Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania before repeating that day with full knowledge of all the events🍰 to come. How could I intervene? What time-related puzzles would there be to solve?
While the game may end up being some version of that, what I played was a pair of baffling mini-games that left me more confused than ever. The first was a shooting gallery that was apparently meant to represent coffee beans floating in space. There were bean grinder t🦄hat, when fired at, would launch a projectile that would explode all the beans in it's path. If you've played , it was similar to the light of Alfheim puzzle that required you to line up perfect axe throws. After 3 or so levels, I felt like I got the gist of it and moved on to the other puzzle.
The second puzzle started out much more promising but quickly overwhelmed me with frustration. A broken coffee machine requires attention, and after opening it up I was presented with a connect-the-pipes puzzle. Simple enough, I've done hundreds of these, including the ones in Doc Oc's lab in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Marvel's Spider-Man. The proꦓblem is that the pipe pieces were very small, there were a ton of them, and I had to rotate them and placဣe the in the correct spot on the board. Fine motor skills are not something PSVR is adept at, and I had the hardest time just getting my virtual hands to cooperate with me and not drop the pipes on the floor.
I was assured this was a camera is and not indicative of how the actual game will play, but after spending half an hour with Groundhog Day VR, I ca🎀n confidently say I have no idea what𓂃 the heck this game is.
