Runes: The Forgotten Path

Game now available with Oculus SDK option in Steam VR, should fix a couple cons for oculus users. I was worried as always when buying a new VR game, ready to refund asap if things seems rushed/incomplete however that was not the case here. Great game for the price if you like a decent story, I want more games like this but longer. The Story got me interested from the start. These guys really did a great job and I hope the best that this sells well to seed some possible story DLC and continure where this leaves off. Game needs some polishing but that's expected. Support these guys if you want more content like this, they have more they want to do...but gotta get that money. Pros: (keeping in mind this is a low budget studio most likely) Good Story Great voice acting Great animations Great enviroments Cons: Length as always, short but good...but I wanted more and I felt like what I got was decent gameplay. Puzzles are a bit boring/tedious and one puzzle was just guess work...unless a...

Well worth a play. I just finished this and honestly would not have bought it if I'd known it would be completed in 4 hrs. I'm glad I didn't know because it is honestly one of the best experiences I've had in VR to date. There's a genuinely engaging story and puzzles that have just enough breadcrumbs to make them solvable without being handed over freely to the player. I hope you guys make a million pounds and bring out a sequel cause you've left me genuinely wondering what's next.

Hey all, I've played for a bit. The story definately pulled me in a little bit, the beginning is pretty cool. Graphix are really nice, no jumpiness, very smooth. Casting the spells is really cool too, I've done ice shield and flame of course fighting off the folks early on in the intro. I would say heck yea, worth the charge of a few movie theater visits. I'm happy with this for sure, 20 dollars seems like a nice deal and worth it. I will be keeping this game! Lately, I return most of the VR games I try, but this will be a keeper for me at least ! I don't do reviews ever, this might even be my first. I just know how early reviews are critical to the success of a game and I can tell some hard work and pride went into this for sure for an indie title like this... Congrats on the release !

Fun story-based puzzle/action. It's a good example of what can be done with VR technology for gameplay, and has a good story driving the experience. I would love to see more content or longer games built around these ideas - I look forward to seeing what StormBorn produces next.

Wow!!! Was eagerly awaiting the release of this and it doesn't disappoint! Awesome graphics, audio, voice acting and puzzles so far achieveable... You play as Leth, ye olde mage, who has lost his memories in this fantasy adventure built with attention to detail and vivid imagination. I don't want it to end...

Only played for a little bit but what I have played so far has been great and I can't wait to play more :)

DISCLAIMER : If anyone is doubting the validity of my review due to me only having 6 minutes in game, I played the game offline and the time did not sync up when I went online to post this review. I launched the game after beating it and let it run to get the time just so I could post this. Now, the review. Coming from HTC Vive POV Runes was a very enjoyable game, with fun puzzles and innovative ideas. The motion-based spell casting was very unique and made the game very fun and interactive. Overall, for the puzzle aspect of the game, I believe it was very good. The story was decent / good, nothing spectacular, but I did enjoy it. The movement can feel a bit weird at times, but overall does a decent job. The introduction of the 4th wall mechanic is interesting, but I found myself opting to use the normal walking and teleporting. I won't mark down anything for this because you can easily toggle it off. The game itself does have a few bugs, but considering it was made by a small team, i...

Great journey and fun magic!

This Game took me 3 Hours to complete why does the Playtime show up as 5? Simple because their Patch erased my previous Save Data 3 HOURS! of a none existing Plot its barely even that because there are no stakes and basicly no devlopment for it too put it midly ``The plot is a farce `` absolutely nothing. The characters are a joke, too. The old master warns you of your power,but does nothing to stop anything. The devil dude does nothing more than to tempt you once. The chick says that there are parts of you missing and the masked dude is just telling you what a terrible person you are and no: This was no short summary of these charcters most important Traits this was their entire character. The gameplay consists of throwing some lazely animated magic balls at badely made monsters . Their is some searching but its barely worth as it just consists of looking around. This game has one toturial and two main levels and two of them are badely made and boring with the exception of the forre...

I thought it was going to be more of a wizard game. Ended up being more of a puzzle game. It was fun, and kept me wanting to play more. the last puzzle got me, and I had to go to a forum to find the answer. I would like more from this game, because it was fun. A bit more of the action wizard part. But over all this game was fun and had me coming back for more.
