Our take on LIMINAL PHASE
Players looking for a long-form campaign may bounce off when the short single-player story concludes. Those wanting conventional horror presentation may also hit a wall with the lo-fi 1990s aesthetic and the story's focus on a fractured psyche.
What is LIMINAL PHASE?
LIMINAL PHASE is a single-player VR action horror game set in an alternate version of the 1990s.
Players follow Frank, whose fixation on videogames deepens after a mysterious floppy disk brings Sanctum 3-D into his apartment. The game moves through horrific environments shaped by his troubled mind, combining combat against hostile creatures with unusual weapons, puzzles, exploration, secrets, and Easter eggs. Movement options include free locomotion, teleportation, smooth turning, and snap turning.
