I really enjoyed this experience but it is very easy I wish the puzzle were a little harder like their previous game The Room VR. The setting, characters and areas were all fantastic though.

About This Game

UNRAVEL A MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE
Life has been going well for Edith. The paranormal detective agency she runs with her flatmate has never been busier, she’s almost up-to-date with her rent and the ghosts in her bathroom mirror have been less demanding than usual. But Edith’s world is turned upside down when her brother goes missing and a mysterious new lead promises to reveal clues of his whereabouts. Edith’s journey begins with a visit to a remote Scottish island in the hope a gifted clairvoyant can provide some much-needed answers.
Fireproof Games are a small independent team based in Guildford, UK. Ghost Town is the result of over 4 years of development and we hope you enjoy playing it as much as we enjoyed making it.

User Reviews
This is one of those games where I want to recommend it, but when I think of all of the little things that add up, I can't in good conscience. But I do want to say that I enjoyed the game. I can't recommend it because there are so many little things (and one big thing) that take away from it. I'll start with the little things. [h3]Environment/Feel[/h3] The environments are beautiful, but... There's little to no interaction with anything in the game. There are some pieces of paper on desks that you can pick up, and there are some that you can't. There are buckets and boxes and stuff scattered everywhere in the environment, but you're on a pretty linear path. They use those boxes and miscellany items to box you in on the map (free pun for you). You can't pick any of those things up, there's nothing hidden in them. So, the environments are beautiful, but they're pretty friggin' empty; the game nearly prohibits exploration. [h3]Puzzles[/h3] The puzzles are fairly interesting, but... On...
First off, it is short and you can't interact with most of the environment as others have said (not a big deal for me, truth be told). The character models are pretty good and voice acting is well done, overall I really enjoyed the story, but then I like Lovecraft/folk horror. The puzzle mechanics are really cool, and the implementation is almost perfect with very little jank. Also, if you press in the right stick (odd choice), you can move faster, which makes the walking sections a bit quicker.
Excellent. Great history, voice acting, etc... Another great game from Fireproof Games. 10/10
Everything Fireproof Games makes is great, and this isn't an exception. Similar puzzles to their earlier VR title, though this one is a lot more focused on narrative. It is a bit short at ~4-4.5 hours, but well worth the price. Somehow the visuals looked better in VR than in the screenshots- it might be that the gamma settings were lower on my headset, and the environments look more atmospheric with the darker gamma correction.
Fantastic narrative-based puzzle VR game. Wish we had 1000 VR games this immersive and high quality.
I thought the game starts off at a liiiiitle show, but then it quickly picks up! The puzzles are good, the atmosphere is stunning, and the story kept me invested throughout. Overall, I’d say this is one of the better puzzle games I’ve played in VR.
A pretty short experience, but I liked the vibe, so I enjoyed it. The puzzles are very straight-forward, and the world severely lacks interactivity, but again: the spooky vibe saves it for me. I'd say definitely get it on sale. For the full price - maybe not.
I really enjoyed this one! The environments are MUCH better than a typical VR game. The lighting in particular greatly increases immersion. As others have said, the puzzles were fairly easy, but the atmosphere is easily worth the asking price. It's one of those where I remember myself actually experiencing what happens in the game vs remembering playing a game. Really high quality stuff, all the way down to the motion capture and voice acting. My only gripe is the "video game engineering" where a bunch of wires hooked up to something makes a complicated machine.. But that's probably because I'm an engineer by profession. It's hard to get past at times, but I understand that you can only do so much! Overall it's an 8.5/10 and easily worth your money.
If you liked the previous VR game from this devs (The Room VR: A Dark Matter) you will like this one also. Good puzzles and dark atmosphere. If you have not played The Room VR before, I recommend both games.
