    This game looks really nice with some interesting puzzles BUT i think the makes have forgotten that you must be 12+ years to play PSVR. I feel this game is aimed at 5 - 10 year olds and that’s pushing it.

    This is an honest review. I would consider myself a pretty hardcore VR gamer and my style of games that I really enjoy are Ghost Giant types with good narrative. MOSS is one of my favorite VR games it's a masterpiece , and I was super excited about Ghost Giant and to be quite frank I really did not enjoy the game. The biggest issue being the controls. The game has really bad and flimsyThis is an honest review. I would consider myself a pretty hardcore VR gamer and my style of games that I really enjoy are Ghost Giant types with good narrative. MOSS is one of my favorite VR games it's a masterpiece , and I was super excited about Ghost Giant and to be quite frank I really did not enjoy the game. The biggest issue being the controls. The game has really bad and flimsy controls. You spend most of the time trying to balance how bad it is to try and pick up items to interact with them. The game never really tells you what to do which is ok but you spend more time just randomly interacting with the environment until something initiates an sequence without really making sense. The game is also very short and the visuals did not impress. The controls and bad visuals were enough to break my experience with the game. It's also quite boring. The game is overpriced as well. There is so much better VR games out there, I would avoid this game.… Expand

    To me it's a flawless game. Graphics, animation, music, story, eveything is beautiful and charming. No glitches. Every character is cute, and the voices are good too. When you play it, you can feel that the developers wanted to do a good work. It was very fun to play and to find every little details.
    This game is really well made. Thank you !

    Easily one of my favorite games on PSVR. We need more well polished VR games like this one. (Hint: play while standing, like a lot of other games the tracking of motion controller could become an issue when sitting).

    запустил как мосс

    оказалось что у меня есть руки и кукольный домик рассказывают историю реально простой английский язык залипательно по началу, но история оказаться слишком детской и сказочной. Ваш персональнаж в итоге почти никак интересно не обыгрывается. секреты челендж найти их все. И в итоге вы по кругу занимаетесь 4 вещами. Сюжетно вместо статики появляеться динамика,    запустил как мосс

    оказалось что у меня есть руки и кукольный домик

    рассказывают историю
    реально простой английский язык

    залипательно по началу, но история оказаться слишком детской и сказочной. Ваш персональнаж в итоге почти никак интересно не обыгрывается.

    секреты челендж найти их все. И в итоге вы по кругу занимаетесь 4 вещами.

    Сюжетно вместо статики появляеться динамика, вроде потруст конфеты

    графика, конечно плохая и поэтому я не хотел играть такое, но я осознал что вырос и могу в такое играть

    Но история под конец слилась. Настолько слилась, что я думал, что тут будет интересно на 8 баллов. А получилось 6. Так как к концу игры всё свелось к банальщине и рипититативеости. У меня к игре очень много вопросов и оказалась что по сути то он один: как я мог не заметить что это игра из начала эпох первого псвр...

    А знаете я думаю хорошо что у Сони нет обратной совместимости с играми прошлого поколения вр. Потому что старые игры морально устарели. А те что не устарели получили порты.    … Expand

    Ghost Giant is both heartwarming and heartbreaking. It delivers a beautiful world and a cute story that explores some serious problems anyone can suffer, therefore creating an experience that is both relaxing and emotional. A few control related problems, can't beat its charm. So if you are looking for an imaginative and intriguing, yet short VR experience, look no further. This is it and it is great.

    At its heart, Ghost Giant is a story centered around mental health struggles and the necessity of seeking help from others. Unfortunately, the developers do little to explore the issues beyond using them as a pretext for the Giant to solve Louis’ external, superficial struggles, leaving little opportunity to bridge the emotional gap between Louis and I. Luckily, Ghost Giant has a beautiful world full of charm to help fill that gap.

    Ghost Giant ended up being a much more immersive story than I expected. VR or not, it tells a tale that many of us can relate to and is very touching. It focuses on a character with child-like innocence all while dealing with some pretty adult issues. It’s playful, charming, and touching. It won’t wow you with the VR experience if you’re used to that, but it does use the mechanics effectively and really engages you with the scenes unfolding below you.
