Some games are so good that you cannot ignore them. They become immersive and entertaining they feel good. They look sleek.
They draw attention into the game itself through sheer excellence. Apparently, to some reportage, one such game is called Brewmaster. It provides the full VR experience for, well, brewing. The players make gestures, nudges, and movements for the VR experience. Those act as commands for inside of the game.
As reported, “Dungeon Brewmaster is an early access virtual reality game available on HTC Vive and Oculus Rift. It’s a clever riff on the job simulator genre that tasks players with concocting potions and poisons to satisfy the clientele of a working dungeon.”
The brewmasters – so to speak – or brewnovices will take their virtual reality headsets and have their avatar take their movements in line with their own. They will work to become a bartender for the customers in the story.
“Gameplay unfolds through the use of gestures and movement. Players will, for example, hold a wriggly worm creature in one hand and slice its head off using a virtual knife or pour the contents of a liquid vial into a simmering pan,” the article stated, “It’s all very intuitive and there wasn’t any learning curve in figuring out how to interact with the tools and ingredients at hand.”
