PC Invasion steps aboard a space station with a VR headset to check out the upcoming title Pollen.
In the end, P.O.L.L.E.N is a decent adventure game and VR experience. However, it’s not without its flaws. The asking price of $24.99 is pretty steep for a three-hour game. The VR support is considered beta, so it will probably be improved upon in the future. The developers have mentioned upcoming Vive support as well. If you find this title on sale it may be worth picking up, but I certainly don’t recommend paying full price.
This game looks cool, but I'm not playing it in VR. I get motion sick all the time.
P·O·L·L·E& amp; amp; #183;N is an immersive first person puzzle-based adventure exploration game developed by Mindfield Games. As a technician newly sent to a research station on Titan, a Saturn's moon, you discover far bigger problems than a bad communications link and more waiting in the unknown situation.
Some of the best science fiction writing occurs when the author takes a world that the reader is familiar with, but changes some aspects to set the story. This doesn’t need to be some far-fetched imaginary science theory that we just need to accept though, for example in Isaac Asimov’s short story Nightfall, the setting is similar to current day, only the planet has multiple suns meaning that they never (in theory) experienced night time, the entire way of life revolves around this. P.O.L.L.E.N takes a similar approach.
