Scraper: First Strike
Scraper: First Strike sounds great on paper: a VR-infused sci-fi role-playing set in a dystopian megacity. Unfortunately, the experience of playing it never lives up to that promise, the sluggish pace of its combat undermining the fun, and the role-playing lite trappings never quite getting going.

Gameplay in the game is a mixed bag; while it features great visuals and polished mechanics, many players find the lack of clear explanations for various mechanics frustrating. The game is brief, limiting the use of deeper mechanics like upgrades, and some players feel it complicates enjoyment rather than enhancing it. However, others appreciate the interactive cockpit interface and the depth of gameplay, particularly in boss fights, suggesting that it has potential for expansion and improvement.
“The cockpit interface was amazingly detailed and interactive, the gameplay had a lot of depth and the boss fights were complex and exciting.”
“Mechanics are great; I love that it's a single-player seated game with wands. You can control components of your pod like vox mechinae in a sense.”
“If you like sci-fi, great gameplay, and a seriously polished VR game, this one is for you.”
“Unfortunately, the game is too brief to utilize many of the more in-depth mechanics, such as upgrades, but the game could definitely be expanded on with this groundwork.”
“Finding the security card and not being told to go back to the elevator, using the unexplained dash mechanic to jump a gap or closing the bay door to name a few.”
“Scraper just gets in the way of itself when it comes to gameplay and my personal answer is no.”
