Aug 18, 2021As a regular game, this title would likely have underwhelmed me somewhat with its basic gameplay and simplistic puzzle-exploration nature. The story is intriguing and hits its stride in the second half, but follows some usual tropes, doesn’t land all of its more complex themes and is relatively predictable. As a VR title though, the atmosphere of the forest, the foreboding sense of dread and the feeling of unease is ever present and amplified from the immersion of the headset and excellent audio design. It’s a great experience in VR and worth having a go with if you love all things horror or psychological thriller, just don’t expect to be scared to death or for anything deep gameplay-wise.

Aug 26, 2021I love the original Blair Witch, but the version for VR goggles is much better. I hope Observer VR is made

Aug 27, 2021It plays well, but the graphics look like PlayStation 2. It's also a shame that the price is so high (the game is quite short, about 5 hours).
