Along Together

★★★★★ Glad that I give it a try. Before this I am skeptical about 3rd person games since it is hard to make player feel "I am the part of this game world" instead of "I am an observer, and I am controlling a game character". But this game do try to make the player as part of the game world by: 1. Letting player interact with the game environment directly, 2. Make the child interact with you when you are waving your hand or triggered some mechanism in the game. IMO these two game designs really makes me feel I am some kinds of god in this game, and it feels pretty good in VR. For the other part, sometimes the fixed camera angle did give me some problem when I tried to interact with some mechanism, and the game control will be confusing when the child you are guiding is nearby another interact-able objects. But overall I am still liking this game, will definitely let my sister trying this game after I finished us.

★★★★★ This is a wonderfully charming puzzle game that is appropriate for the whole family. I've already played lots of these types of games and this game is one of the best I've played. I actually just finished a similar game Lola and the Giant and I like this better. First the graphics are stunning. Everything is very sharp and crisp and doesn't just look like vector shapes. There's a lot of attention to detail including panning of your character as you move through the exercises. A lot has been said about the second person experience and I actually like it. Much like Lola and the Giant you need a larger character to finish the tasks. It's plenty challenging as the game progresses, and you really need to remember where you started as you start getting disoriented and lost. My one huge pet peeve about this game is about your orientation. You're way too close to game play, and you're constantly hitting the reset button to find where you are. It really takes away from the enjoyment of the game. The other thing that is nice is you don't have any time constraints like others I've played, so you don't feel pressured and can enjoy the problem-solving. Highly recommended!!

★★★★★ *** Need help - can't figure out how to show map for level 6! I can't figure out how to swipe, or do whatever to show the second map! I cleared the first 5 levels, and saw the 6th (one time, on a new map), but after exiting and coming back in, I can only see the initial map with the first 5 levels, and can't figure out how to swipe or whatever to see my next level. Love the controls, and use of perspective to look down on the player. Everything about this game is well done, including the graphics, personality, and level of difficulty (which is pretty easy and forgiving, and I like that). Great use of VR, and also just a great game. Hope to figure out how to continue my journey.
