Sorry, Astrobot Rescue Mission, but you have been removed. I, a a difficult customer when it comes to PSVR, get a new PSVR game that can be updated indefinitely. It's called Paper Beast, and an obvious trip for some exotic animals.

I should have expected to be surprised by this game. Paper Beast It is made by a team led by Eric Chahi, whose games are rare and beautiful. He was the idea behind the shocking acts of 1991 Another Earth and, most recently, the 2011 volcano simulator From Dust. The games were very different but very similar to the other worlds. Both, as Paper Beast, quietly introduce their players to surprisingly intricate environments that are governed by the hidden rules you find in contact with the world.

Paper Beast it is as magical and mysterious as the other Chahi releases. After installing the PSVR headset, you are briefly transported to the futureur cybercape before finding yourself in a desert surrounded by curtains. Using the PlayStation Move controllers, you have to grind to those concerts. They collapse, revealing that he is standing under a large, long sheet of paper. It moves, backsliding and lowers its head towards you.

Soon, you learn how to get through the world and, without words, how to interact with it. The game presents itself as a natural walk, even though this natural environment is unlike anything else in the world. You will approach an oasis where animals such as paper-made dogs drink water. Later, I came across a scattering creature that seemed to be made of expanded paper.

You interact with these creatures to solve the puzzle, usually clearing your way forward. The route is usually blocked, at least until you find the rules of the event around you. Inside the black tunnel, you will see that that rolled up piece of paper will penetrate the light sources. Find one and move it, and that animal will clear the way for you. Some of the skulls that roam the cave will grind the trash down like a wild lion. Guide the anaconda well, and they will create a ramp that you can use to escape. A tube-like creature at the beginning of a game absorbs sand from one end and throws it into the other. Setting the end of this creature stimulates many world strategies.

Paper Beast draws some of its ideas into Chahi From Dust, a game of a god who used the tools of theft of land as the basis of volcanic expansion, creating rivers and reshaping the world to help the nation survive. Lots of puzzles in between Paper Beast include changing the environment, too, from the first part of the game I played, at the closest level. I had been in the basement with the young men of the game, their world threatened me with real power. I don't think you can die in this game, but you can stand around, worried or stunned, as you make an impression of things.

A player can catch a red object, attracting a turtle-like animal, leaving sand on its belly as it moves. The recycled sand also provides water, which can solve a local environmental puzzle.

Any VR game runs the risk of missing many players. Real programmable platforms remain a niche, and there is always the question of whether a given game really needs VR. This one makes the most of it. More impressive Paper Beast how it gets you into its strange world. It really helps to have this strange space all around you, and its mysterious world looks great, even if it's a small PlayStation VR powerplant.

These days, there are many games out there that people use to escape. Many games can distract us, if only to mention, from the historical epidemic. Some people like it Animal Crossing because of it to experience the island's good life. There's a good argument Eternal Judgment and a sign of superior confidence and ability. Paper Beast it offers a different painting: flight to another world, where things work differently and where you can be known.
