Our take on Driftwatch VR
Rather than giving players unrestricted movement through a fantasy world, the game places them on moving platforms and fixed routes. Its genre departure is the combination of on-rails shooting, Vive VR, and score chasing, with accuracy bonuses replacing broader exploration as a central goal.
What is Driftwatch VR?
Driftwatch VR is a Vive on-rails shooter set in a magical realm occupied by hostile goblins.
Movement follows fixed routes while players aim and fire at enemies, avoiding the need for complex locomotion. Combat includes magic abilities, a longbow, dual crossbows, a magic staff, and fireballs. The game contains 4 levels and rewards skillshots with bonus points. Players can practice precision and timing while trying to defeat the most enemies and achieve the highest score. The available platforms include travel on a giant whale or a helicopter platform, providing the setting for the shooting sequences.
