About

You follow a message from an unknown contact to the secret underground lab of Orb Labs to find evidence of "questionable experiments" conducted there. However, you soon have to discover that the whole complex is protected by deadly laser systems that will try to kill any intruder. Luckily for you, you can use Orb Labs' own weapons against them: orbs.

Sneak through the lab, avoid being seen (well, and shot at), and descend all the way to discover the truth!Features
  • Cybersickness-free movement: throw orbs to teleport around dangerous situations
  • 5+ hours of gameplay in story mode, sneaking your way through ever new and challenging parts of the lab
  • Maneuver through dangerous situations, each of which can be solved in different ways (and using different orbs!)
  • Find the best way to beat each level and compete against the world in challenge mode!

Note: HTC Vive recommended. Oculus Rift (with Touch controllers and 360° room-scale tracking required) is supported via SteamVR.

Orb Labs, Inc. cannot be played with Windows Mixed Reality headsets.

Orb Labs, Inc. reviews and comments

Product received for free Orb Labs, Inc. by Next Friday Interactive is reinventing the MOVEMENT in VR. So to Speak. The Principle Of Movement in this not so simple Action Puzzle is already unique. As the Name suggests, various small Balls, the so-called Orbs, play a Role. For example, we need blue Orbs to move away in the labyrinthine Corridors that appear to be designed by a "demented Squirrel." For this we just have to throw one of the blue Orbs in the desired Direction, wait until it lies quietly there and schwubs, we stand in place. Good that you can pick up the little blue ones again. Unfortunately, this does not apply to all Orbs. But in order to be activated, they all need because we need them to get past the nasty Laser Cannons that stand all over the Lab Corridors and mercilessly bristle away. Lucky that we find scanning stations in the various Corridors that serve as Saving points, so it is not quite so tragic if it hits you away. The Game is carried by a fun Slightly crude story that the Player can read about Text Pads and various Laptops spread out in the Corridors. The Graphics are solid and kept in a Sci-fi style. The Laboratory could also be a Spaceship or similar. Just because of the inovative Control, a Must for every VR puzzle! More spherical Reviews here: https://store.steampowered.com/curator/32170554/

Product received for free Orb Labs is once again something new in the VR game collection. (Tested With HTC Vive) Our Job is to penetrate deeper and deeper Into an abandoned lab. As An Antagonist, we have a Laser system to outsmart. We have the so-called Orbs at our disposal in various Statements. On the one hand, the Teleport Orb, with which we approach, we throw the baseball-sized Object as soon as it touches the Ground, we import ourselves directly there. Later We get other Orbs, such as a small Barricade, behind which we cover, an Orb That directs Laser fire and others. The Orbs are in a Bracket on our Wrist, there are only a limited Number available to Us, so it is worth taking a Look in Cupboards or taking a little detour to find one or the other "hidden" Orb. (We can simply pick up and reuse the teleport orbs, all the others only 1x each) The deeper we penetrate into the Laboratory, the more difficult the Situations become, so it can be worth it in the Beginning to budget a bit more sparingly with the Orbs in order to master tricky Situations later. On the respective Floors There are fixed Storage Stations, at which we start again in Case of Death. I've had a lot of fun so far. The Control and the Game Principle with the Orbs is very interesting and works excellently, the Tasks become more demanding over time and the Story is told in Some rather funny way. (We read them on Data Pads and find a Laptop from previous Visitors again and again) The Graphics are apt, and if the Indication is true with over 5 Hours of Gameplay, this Game is definitely a clear Buy recommendation, especially at the Price.
