    the gameplay and atmosphere is outstanding but there are some big issues, manly its length. the puzzles them selves are great and solving them is extremely satisfying. even just messing around to figure out what every button does is fun. the problem, and it is a big problem, is the length. i personal beat it in about 2 hours. by the time i beat it i was less satisfied with the game andthe gameplay and atmosphere is outstanding but there are some big issues, manly its length. the puzzles them selves are great and solving them is extremely satisfying. even just messing around to figure out what every button does is fun. the problem, and it is a big problem, is the length. i personal beat it in about 2 hours. by the time i beat it i was less satisfied with the game and more frustrated by the extremely short length and cause its a puzzle game there is very little replay-ability beside some secret achievements and bonus ending. another flaw is the story is pretty predictable and besides the ending doesn't have much going on. whats there is fantastic but its over so quick it feels more like loss potential then a full experience. if you fine with a very short game i would recommend it but just dont expect a full game Expand

    Game is honestly a 7 at best. Anyone claiming it's the perfect game is just overhyping it. There is little to no story and for such a short game there are sequences that seems to be nothing more than filler. The puzzles are unique and interesting at first, but once you know the button mapping, there is little challenge and it's over in maybe 2-3 hours at best.

If you are a puzzle game and VR fan, you will likely enjoy it for the brief time it lasts (there is little replay value beyond unlocking another ending and a couple of secret puzzle mechanics).

    Not the worst way to spend 2 hours, but definitely wait for a sale as in half an afternoon you will be done and it's unlikely you will go back. Note that it would likely be a good game to show to people new to VR.

    This is a well done puzzle game. Not my favorite genre but I could see people liking this if you are into this type of thing. If you aren't then you will play it for an hour or so and never play it again like I did most likely.

    Statik is a superb example of a puzzle game, intelligent, immersive and lots of fun to play. The subtle story woven through is interesting, the puzzles challenging without being too frustrating. VR is used superbly as an integral part of the experience and not a tacked on gimmick. Definitely worth picking up for anyone who owns a PlayStation VR.

    Statik is one of the best games to enjoy with PlayStation VR. The game developed by Tarsier Studios is an exciting, disturbing and challenging puzzle game.

    This disconcerting gem is a stimulating puzzler, and a well-judged use of PS VR, with a richly ambiguous story. It's not the longest game around, but it'll linger in your memory for weeks. [July 2016, p.80]
