I’ve played a few adventure games based on literary works in my time—heck, at least one of them was this year with Metamorphosis, a first person adventure game based on Kafka’s work. […]
The Quest 2 continues to impress me, so much so that it’s become the virtual reality headset that I use the most. It doesn’t outperform my Valve Index, but its mobility makes […]
