VR Bros’ horror game achieves total immersion through wheelchair-based movement
Promoted Content In association with
VR is a wonderful medium for horror games, allowing for petrifying levels of immersion in whatever disturbing world you strap yourself into. A Wake Inn, from indie developer VR Bros, capitalises on the medium’s capacity for creepiness; you explore the halls of an unsettling hotel – think ’The Shining’ – infested with creepy, life-size dolls, brought to life by a mysterious energy source called Pneuma.
It gets creepier still;
you are also one of these terrifying human-size dolls, and – accompanied by a mysterious voice via shortwave transmitter – you’re tasked with exploring the hotel to discover the nature of the possessed puppets who lurk in the darkness, and so determine your own fate.
