    While it lacks the processing punch of a PC-tethered headset, the mobility and no-strings-attached freedom of the Oculus Quest has allowed me to dive deep into the headset as a fitness product, and Beat Saber, Box VR and a few other titles are in regular rotation. Synth Riders has the potential to challenge those products if it can expand the range of its playlist and offer a few more bells and whistles (like a campaign) to the generally solid foundation. Synth Riders’ approach is definitely influenced by Beat Saber but it has expanded the earlier game’s vocabulary and mechanics in several interesting ways.

Дело в том, что - чтобы пройти уровень достаточно собирать шарики, но чтобы получить максимум очков нужно их бокс-ировать. Бокс хорошо качает дыхалку, а махания руками стимулирует другу группы мышц по сравнение от бит сейбера. Набор песен довольно скуден относительно их популярности, однако даже в квест версии можно загружать кастомки, что очень выручает эту игру. И только за костыль с тем, что платные длс просто ни о чём, я снижаю этой игре один бал. Моё музыкальное видение и ритма немного не совпадает с видением авторов игры, но в остальном. Сам геймплей, и практически идеальный интерфейс, заслуживают 9-ку, а значит я буду рекомендовать всем игрокам бит сейбера эту игру… Full Review »

Synth Riders has a wide variety of music types for those who are picky (Synthwave, Electroswing, pop, and DLCs with EDM/The OffSpring/Muse). The game is mapped extremely well with various difficulties you can choose from (easy to master) and has a ton of different modifiers (spin, 360, force) to breathe more life into all of your favorite songs. For the content creators out there - Kluge Interactive has also added a Twitch integration in which viewers can spend bits on "power ups" to make it more difficult for their favorite streamer to get through the map. I won't spoil you on what these are, you're going to have to find out for yourself. ;)

    Updates to the game are frequent and always outdo the last, don't miss the 'experience' maps some of the DLCs offer, you really do feel like you are experiencing some of your favorite songs in a whole new way.    … Full Review »
