Pathstow Mystery is a nice mix of \u201cescape room\u201d(the first episode) as well as puzzle solving. Difficulties of the 4 episodes range from simplistic to downright..puzzling(which I guess is the point!). There is much creative use of VR in this game that you simply could not replicate by using traditional controllers.Despite buying the game on the idea it was scary, it is actually not such which was fine with me after playing through Paranormal Activity : The Lost Soul, I was ready for a break from jump scares. The game\u2019s graphics are surprisingly good despite some odd graphic clippings or objects going flying if you place them in random locations or on top of each other. Audio of the game actually fits the game quite well with a haunting style track or nice ambiance that doesn\u2019t distract from the gameplay itself.Much of the length of the game isn\u2019t so much \u201cgameplay\u201d but how long you will be stuck on an episode- this reminds me a lot of most puzzle games. Thinking of The Talos Principle : VR, a puzzle can be 1-2 minutes or 1-2 hours depending if you already know the solution and the same holds true for Pathstow Mystery VR.As far as difficulty, I don\u2019t consider myself a patient person nor proficient at puzzles. I will give a shout out to the developer \u201cMystic cat\u201d for fielding my confusion on puzzles. As far as episode difficulty, puzzle-wise \u2013 I\u2019d rate them anywhere from fair (as in, I was close but didn\u2019t solve without assistance) to no chance in hell(I wasn\u2019t even in the ballpark.) I\u2019d usually give myself 30-45 minutes of trying and running around in circles until I\u2019d give up. How much juice you\u2019ll get out of this game will depend upon how much you can stand running in circles and how fast you can solve the puzzles blind before you turn to help.For the non-discounted $19.99 price \u2013 I have a tough time recommending the game but I am not a puzzle fanatic either. The attention to detail in the puzzles is top notch and without spoiling much, there is a lot here that I haven\u2019t seen in other games. Considering it\u2019s 4 episodes, I\u2019d say at least a couple of them would be worth $5.00 as an \u201cescape room\u201d style game on their own. The game stood out to me as unique and it definitely has a narrative and vibe going through the game that is memorable even now as I type this review.. Very nice game with exploration and touch-hunting experience.Pros:+ atmosphere+ music is awesome+ many interactive objects+ graphic is nice and optimized+ you can't dieCons:- not enough horror, meditative gameplay- cabinet doors physic could be betterFrom my point of view, it is very nice game with interesting puzzles which requires a lot of attention in looking for clues.
