3D without the Glasses


About the game: The game is pretty straightforward. You are helping this animated character complete this story. You have to find the words in each stage in order to move on.

Controls: Very spotty. I started playing and everything seemed to work well. After awhile, I am not sure if the light wasn't right or the game just doesn't like me this became a nightmare.

What is supposed to happen is as you move the camera moves in the game which allows you to look all over the screen. This becomes a nightmare because the game just is not as responsive as you want it to be.


Graphics:  Very Impressive. This is what you want to see. The puzzles pop out at you and the effect is very impressive.

Sound: Some catchy tunes that do not impede the game at all.

Gameplay: You take a picture of yourself to start. Then you enter a stage where you have to find various letters/pictures hidden all over.

What makes this unlike other puzzle games is that the game uses head tracking. This is the reason you take the picture. You are looking at a 3d area and you have to move the camera around to sometimes actually make the letters/pictures appear. 

The game sounds solid, but as I said under controls it falls way short. The camera is just too spotty and it makes what should be a very enjoyable experience a painful one.

Verdict: Not Playworthy!
