About

Crowhille: Detective Case Files VR is a single player action adventure game. It was developed by NipsApp Gaming Software and was released on September 10, 2021. It received very positive reviews from players.

"Crowhille: Detective Case Files VR" is a second-class virtual reality game where you investigate an old, mysterious asylum in Wales. Armed with only a fragment of Dr. Hereford's report, you'll search for clues, unlock doors, and solve puzzles to reveal the dark secrets of the asylum's past. In the depths of the lab, you'll confront the Crowhille Three, supernatural beings you must defeat to bring peace and understanding. However, the game's dated graphics and repetitive puzzles prevent it from achieving greater success.
