VROOM: Aerie

I'm sick of people playing VR games without a headset and complaining that it's not amazing. This isn't GTA. What it is, however, is a game that puts you into a nice virtual experience and gives you many things to do. It delivers exactly what it says it will; immersion in a luxury apartment full of things to explore. If you don't own a VR headset, don't buy this game. It has nothing for you.

Ok, it seems i'm the first one to buy this game and the first one to review it. I really liked the idea. I like reproduction of mundane life in games. Although i don't have a VR, i wanted to give it a shot and bought it, but... When you push "Play" on Steam you spawn in a elevator with a Warning message for Oculus users and that's it. No controls instructions, no menu, no game options, no nothing. I don't know if it's like this because i don't have VR, but ok. My review is not based on this matter. The graphics and modeling are good. But the apartment is very, very small (My GTA Online Apartment is bigger). As far as i explored it has only one room (living room/kitchen). The other door is locked and other has a [spoiler]Shark (!)[/spoiler]. Almost all the objects has some interation, but most of them just make sounds. When you go to the balcony theres no ambient sound (the game doesn't have ambient sound at all). The city below you is silent. The "small as a ant or 10 feet tall" fe...

Not bad for the price of a dinner at McDonalds. It's not something that's going to keep you coming back for hours, but for 6 bucks its an interesting 45 mintues or so. There is enough content to tinker with and I had a few chuckles. The atmosphere is nice (wish my apartment was that awesome!) and I like that you can mess with just about everything short of the actual walls. I'm also glad that I caught this after the little add on that lets you turn the lights off. I really like the look of the place in the day light from the huge windows. It makes me want to actually crash on one of the couches and grab a book or something. The little vehicle's are fun. The head tracking in the apache was brilliant. I flew the little sopwith out of the apartment and bounced off the roof and I was pretty surprised I didn't run into any invisible walls. It's apperent that there was effort put into making a finite space as interesting as possible. For some contructive criticism; I will say that the lit...

I played this for 30 minutes. It's a really nicely done VR sandbox experience. My biggest complaint is that the use of touch controllers could have been done better. It's like this game was originally done for a VR and gamepad experience and the touch controls were added in later. Especially on Touch controllers, there's a tactile feel to picking up objects and playing with them. In this game, there's none of that. Instead you have like a laser pointer (or is it a fire pointer?) that gives you interaction with objects. There's an amazing amount of interactions that are mostly hits and only a few misses. I loved going into the fish water tank. I liked the old figher airplane (even thought he controls for all vehicles were clunky at best). I liked how interacting with the purple drink gave us a taste of purple haze. I liked the fruit basket gag. On the other hand, the toy car is broken. It doesn't go forward as intended. Pressing trigger makes the car jump forward and...

Great job developers! I love this luxury condo. The little secrets are funny and fun to play. Please don't take anything away. However, why is the Master bedroom nonfunctional? Open it up, and add a luxury bath. The lady behind the door can be added as a shadow in the bedroom shower. (wink) Also, add a cute puppy and a hot maid.

Someone put a lot of effort into to making this, so purchase it only if you're a passionate supporter of indie developers, don't expect a high-quality product. The apartment interior is fairly realisticly rendered and there are a few quirky surprises, but there's zero replay value and you'll experience what little it has to offer in less than 10 mins. Sound design and effects are poor.

I was debating about buying this for a while. I bought the pirate ship one and i had so many errors on it i got a refund. This game is much better, its not a game as such but more of a experiance. I bought it on the idea i wanted a quick game to show to friends and this does the trick. theres a fair few things to interact with and play with, such as ship, suberu car, helecopter , attack plane. The only bad thing was that the TV doesnt work, it says music tracks on there but doesnt play. if you looking for something to give a insight to VR world maybe get your GF on it as its not a violent game (we know what some ladies are like) then this on sale is worth the cost i paid around £3.88 (price of a burger but without the kcals and alot more satisying )

Unfortunately, most of the vehicle content (plane, helicopter and submarine) made me horrendously motion sick and there wasn't quite enough content to justify the price on this one.

Graphics are not top notch, but as many people mentioned, Vroom: Aerie could be a VR showcase to your friends who haven't experienced VR yet. Want to explore more secrets in this luxury home :)
