'The Visitor' is a singleplayer first-person phycological-horror game where you play as an author who suffers from a mental illness. She has procrastinated on completing her book and won't get paid until she finishes it. Unfortunately for her, not only is she running out of money, she is also running out of her medication. There are chapters that you are expected to redo in order to get paid. Her medication had allowed her to stay up until a normal time until she felt tired and had to sleep, as her medication drains she has become exhausted far more quickly. This leads to her sleeping more than usual which, since your are almost out of medication and your deadline for your book is closing in, is not a good thing! Since her medication is low you will experience noises, and visions that you normally wouldn't. Are they real? Who knows. Complete the chapters and get paid in order to return to living your average life.

The Visitor reviews and comments

The Game is short but appropriate to the Price ... This was my first horror experience with my HTC Vive and I have to say ... I've never been so scared. Can only recommend the game for the Money. Here's my Video for the Game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_bFsqCMoWE

The Visitor is very short, but it also costs just 99 Cents. The Game shows very well how Horror and Jump Scones come across in VR. With the Vive, it's a very intense Experience that can't be compared to a desktop game or Motion Picture. Horror in VR is much more intense. The Prize is justified and even after the 5 Minutes of Games you still enjoy the Game when you show it to your Friends who don't have a VR experience. :-) The Reactions are delicious. 99 Cents definitely worth it. I can recommend the Game.

The Visitor is a so-called "VR Experience" in the horror genre. The "Experience" takes about 10min during a few creepy Things happening in between. You see the Game from a personal Perspective as you lie in Bed. Outside it's dark and as in almost all Horror Games it's tweeted. I have to admit that I have already played Games that were scarier, but "VR" has its own unique Touch. It is just something else to see on the Monitor instead of experiencing it "real." Basically, it's a nice Horror Game with a Jumpscare That could elicit a Lot of Sounds and Curses from me. I can recommend this Game as I have Fun or Horror;) Had with it. For "practiced" Horror Players, it's presumably too lax.

So I'm not the one who necessarily likes horror and just treated myself to the 99 Cents to distinguish real Men from Pussis. Again and Again gives Klugscheisser Who see VR glasses only as Toys: Steamsad: Anyway! Before the Video was seen on Youtube and found it rather harmless. So try it yourself. Did know what's happening and what's coming my way. Oha... It's crass. Watching a Video on the Monitor is really completely something other than being there yourself. My Conclusion: I still had extremely Goosebumps, Sweats and an unwanted (unfortunately quite loud) scream on my part. They came to my Aid from many Sides and then laughed at me. I didn't find that funny at all in that Moment. The Visitor is very well staged. Not exaggerated, even if you get petty, if someone whispers something in your Ear or the Light flickers. I make a clear Recommendation! Maybe I manage to keep the Glasses after the teddy on the Second Attempt?!? Am just just a Pussi: Steamhappy:
