Last Labyrinth

Last Labyrinth struggles to deliver an engaging VR escape room experience, marred by sluggish gameplay mechanics, repetitive level design, and inconsistent puzzle quality. Though the game's mysterious premise and multiple endings hold promise, the novelty of its VR features quickly fades. Overpriced and lacking replay value, Last Labyrinth falls short of providing the immersive experience players might hope for.

  • story
    26 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story in "Last Labyrinth" is often described as obscure and disconnected, with many players feeling frustrated by its lack of clarity and depth. While some appreciate the challenge of piecing together the narrative through various endings, others express disappointment in the minimal storytelling and focus on puzzle-solving. Overall, the game presents a visually appealing experience, but its narrative may leave players wanting more.

    • “The game is well crafted with beautiful visuals and a partner that makes, even though you can't understand her, you want to do your best to save her and find out the story behind it all.”
    • “Putting together the storyline is Last Labyrinth's final (and most difficult) puzzle.”
    • “In conclusion, I think that if you want a challenge, and the price doesn't put you off ($40 at the time of this review), you should definitely play Last Labyrinth, especially if you enjoy the kind of game that's good at sneakily revealing a secret underlying story without being in your face about it.”
    • “And I really wanted to discover the story, but from some of the comments I've seen... it doesn't actually have one?”
    • “The game's story is incredibly disconnected and unclear.”
    • “This game apparently has a story, but the 'endings' are so obscure that I still do not know what the story is.”
  • grinding
    12 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players find the grinding aspect of the game to be overwhelmingly tedious and frustrating, particularly in VR where physical interaction adds to the discomfort. The puzzles are described as boring and repetitive, leading to a lack of engagement, and the need to replay them for additional endings further exacerbates the monotony. Overall, the experience is deemed only marginally worthwhile at a low price point for those who enjoy such tedious gameplay.

    • “The puzzles are for the most part extremely boring and tedious.”
    • “And when they aren't boring and tedious, they're frustrating and tedious.”
    • “Once you're done with all the puzzles, the game goes into a loop where you can collect the rest of the endings and it's super tedious replaying old puzzles to do so.”
  • atmosphere
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    • “Amazing horror atmosphere if you like the Saw movies.”
    • “Lovely contrasts executed well, together with the irie atmosphere!”

  • graphics
    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

Overall, opinions vary from high appreciation for the visuals to a belief that they do not justify a higher price point.

    • “Graphics are great, they feel foreboding and mesh very well with the sound design. Not only that, but all the assets seem pretty original, which is another big plus, especially since a lot of horror games nowadays just copy-paste assets from other places.”
    • “The game is well crafted with beautiful visuals, and a partner that makes you want to do your best to save her and uncover the story behind it all, even though you can't understand her.”
    • “Graphics are great, they feel foreboding and mesh very well with the sound design. Not only that, but all the assets seem pretty original, which is another big plus, especially since a lot of horror games nowadays just copy-paste assets from other places.”
