    I was really unsatisfied/disappointed with this game. The trailer certainly makes it look like enough fun to warrant the price, however it falls far short of that when actually playing the game. The sound effects are either not there where you would expect them, or are plain terrible. The gameplay feels very static/rigid. You can move your guns around fine with the motion controllers asI was really unsatisfied/disappointed with this game. The trailer certainly makes it look like enough fun to warrant the price, however it falls far short of that when actually playing the game. The sound effects are either not there where you would expect them, or are plain terrible. The gameplay feels very static/rigid. You can move your guns around fine with the motion controllers as well as any game, but the enemies are so rigid and dull. You're never fooled into thinking any of these characters or monsters are possibly real in any context. The game is super short, and even the training mode won't last long until you are bored to tears with it. In training, getting to level 30 is super easy, then actually beating level 30 was pretty frustrating. The environments are not convincing, and you feel more like you are in a low budget version of MGS2 on the PS2. The good is that the game runs fine and had no glitches that I noticed in the short time I had with it until everything was finished. The biggest reason I'm giving it a 4 instead of maybe a 6 is that the price is way way too high for this experience. If it's on sale for $5-10 when you're reading this, it would be a fine game to grab if you're hungry to shoot at things with a gun in each hand and aren't expecting a polished game. The whole game feels very homemade. Sorry for the bad review but I was just very unhappy with the game for what I paid ($27 CAD). I ended up getting a refund which I would have done before playing for an hour and a half if I had thought of the idea. I was thinking I was stuck with the game and trying to get something out of it in a feeling-sorry-for-my-wallet type of way. If it was priced at a third of what it is, I would be giving a bit of a different review as you would be expecting what you're getting here.… Expand

    Mortal Blitz is highly recommended Time Crisis like VR game. Unfortunately I don't see what everyone is talking about. The game is very short and generic. Overall just boring.

    We had some fun with Mortal Blitz's brief 90 minute campaign, but it’s hard to ignore the lack of imagination that’s gone into its makeup. For every moment of glee, mostly afforded by the VR headset than any real design philosophy, there’s an equal moment of disappointment. As a genre, it perfectly suits the VR medium, but the repetitive and uninspiring design leaves little to reflect on with too much positivity.

    This shooting gallery sparks your interest, but gets as generic as its name too fast. It serves as a solid variation of Time Crisis in VR, but leaves too much potential untapped.

    For both better and worse, Mortal Blitz is effectively Time Crisis in VR. In some ways, it’s the game you dreamed of playing since you first picked up a G-Con gun in 1995; physically taking cover and trading fire with the enemy can be intense and thrilling. At the same time, though, its design is overly simplistic, and lacks the twists and hooks we’ve come to expect as the VR shooter begins to move into its second year. There’s plenty fun to be had here, but it’s dated even by VR’s standards.
