Emiline: The Ghost of White Willow

First off this game looks amazing in the hmd. Yes it needs some polish but this solo dev is off to a great start. He recently hired a dev to help with cleanup..new interactions and extra story. Love how you are also a bad ass soldier in the beginning and then come to a mysterious house that strips you of your strength and makes you feel vulnerable from the paranormal. Great start White Willow Games! https://youtu.be/IkNRPXtQUaE

I really want to like this game it blends two of my favorite genres wwii and horror but Im having a difficult time with the controls. It took me 30 mins to finally figure out how to get out of the pond you land in at the start of the game. Then I wander into the dark mansion and look, great, a lantern. I fumble to pick it up but finally manage to get ahold of it. Then I accidentally drop and cant pick it back up because somehow it is beyond my reach but my hand is right there above it. The handle looks like it is inside the floor. So im feeling around in the dark and manage to get into a room . I walked to the opposite wall and somehow Im back outside. I dont know if it is wall clipping or a secret door or whatever. I like the setting of this game and I really would like to explore it more, but Im just not getting the controls they seem like they are off a bit. And it is for that reason that I just cant recommend this game right now, I will check back int he future and hopef...

For my first play through I did it was a really good experience. Some scares really got me. Overall a really good VR horror game
