Adr1ft

Adr1ft‘s PC debut was delayed from a 2015 release to coincide with the launch of the Oculus Rift VR headset and features full Occulus Rift support. As I don’t have access to a Rift headset, I played the standard edition of the game and, while I had a lot of fun with it, I can imagine that VR adds a whole other level of enjoyment to teetering on the edge of space that you just can’t get from a moni...

Clocking in at four hours or so, it doesn’t overstay its welcome. I can also see jumping back into Adr1ft every so often to freak myself out again, or show it off to friends. So long as you have a stomach for it, this is one of the first “must-have” games for VR.

I’m not claustrophobic person in real life, but few things in games freak me out more than diving down a waterlogged tunnel accompanied by dwindling oxygen supplies and the sound of a heartbeat. It’s a reliably tense setup, which is probably why it keeps bobbing to the surface. Considering Adr1ft’s deep-space setting, I expected to spend hours clutching uncomfortably at my shirt collar and gasping...

Some horrible catastrophe has left the captain of a space station floating in space in a damaged EVA suit. As the sole survivor, you must navigate the wreckage and find a way to get the escape pod working again. Throughout your journey you’ll find clues as to what exactly happened and try to piece together what really happened to the crew and the station. ADR1FT is the latest title from Three One ...

Like riding a bike in zero gravity, Adr1ft takes some getting used to and offers an interesting, fresh and beautiful presentation. Sure, it has some rough corners but it has several more bright spots.

Getting by on strong atmosphere (no pun intended), scenic views, and an intuitive means of controlling full three-dimensional movement, Adr1ft’s repetitive fix-it missions make its second half a chore to get through. Some strong pieces of voice acting would’ve been put to better use if the story weren’t so vague.

ADR1FT je hra, která vás hned na začátku oslní naprosto geniální grafikou. Ale jak si stojí z hlediska příběhu a hratelnosti? To se dozvíte v naší recenzi.

The fault in our stars.

I know game development is challenging. I really do. I thought I wanted to be a game developer for the majority of my childhood until I realized I’d much rather play, analyze and criticize things in my favorite medium. During the early years before my epiphany, I put together one unfinished amateur project after another — and without even programming, using tools like Multimedia Fusion and Constru...

But, sadly, not this one - not for me, at least. It makes me too sick, and because the underlying experience collapses from operatic space disaster into rinse and repeat all too soon, I am not minded to endure that awful lurching sensation. Despite that, some of my VR confidence has been restored. Maybe this thing can happen after all.
