Blind is a narrative-driven psychological thriller for virtual reality where the player is blind and must explore their surroundings using echolocation.
Waking up in a strange room with little memory of how she came to be there, a young woman makes the shocking discovery she has lost her sense of sight. Goaded by the sinister and sadistic Warden, she must explore a twisted and frightening mansion using sound alone. By sending out soundwaves with a cane, the outlines of objects are revealed briefly, enabling the player to navigate the mansion, solve puzzles and uncover the mystery of what is happening to her.
As she gets closer and closer to the truth, however, she will be forced to confront her worst enemy--that which she does not, or will not see.
Fun + Different. Cool experience to try in VR. Can be scary, but less horror than Stifled, and much better done (no bugs or glitches). More story, but also not the main point of the experience
A Solid Unique Immersion! It takes some getting used to but after you do... WOW! I became comfortably numb in this game. I am very glad they didnt take the easy way out and put in a bunch of jump scares cause given the circumstances it would of been to easy. They didnt need jump scares to create an unsettling and self torturous enviornment. It wasnt overly complicated and wasnt to dumbed down. A great interactive narative! Great story!
Only complaint is how SLOW your character moves I understand the slow moving creates suspense but would of helped!
Enjoyable. A good solid VR game. I spent 4 hours to complete with 10 of the achivements done. I had to look up two puzzles because they can be a little obscure, but it didnt distract much from the feel of the game.

My Thoughts: I have played these types of games before and the concept works really well in VR. You have to use sound to find your way around the levels, finding objects and searching for clues. It's cleverly done. Some of the puzzles are really obscure to solve and I did get stuck in the library so you might need to have a handy walkthrough on hand, just in case you get stuck. It would have been nice for the developers to have a seperate echo effect (tip mode) for helping you to find clue locations.
