Sail the seas as a peg-legged pirate in this massively interactive game for the Oculus Rift.
Remember VROOM: Aerie? It was released mid-2015, and let gamers explore a virtual apartment packed with interactive elements, surreal moments and some clever gameplay mechanics (including the ability to explore the environment as toy planes and cars). Now the developer behind VROOM: Aerie is back with another interactive world to explore, but this time with an historical twist, in VROOM: Galleon.
Priced $9.99, the game was released today on both Steam and The Rift Arcade Downloads, and it enables gamers to explore the decks and cabins of an historically accurate 16th century English galleon. With more than 70 interactive elements to discover, alongside some beautiful graphics, it’s definitely worth checking out.
