About This Game You died. Welcome to XING.Spirit JourneyWhat if you had the power to go up to a gravestone, read the epitaph, and transport yourself into the lives of the departed?Your body may be gone, but your life has just begun. In death, you will find yourself on a journey across a series of mysterious lands, an afterlife filled with the thoughts and personalities of those long lost. Follow these forgotten stories, collect artifacts, solve puzzles, and discover secrets as you make your own adventure through the mysteries of The Land Beyond. Is death without legacy something to be feared? What happens when we do not realize what is most important to us? Do we choose our own destiny, or is it chosen for us?A Puzzling PlaceXING: The Land Beyond is a fantastical, non-combative, spiritual journey through the afterlife. Along the way you are challenged to solve a myriad of puzzles which require logic, creativity, and the mastery of environmental control. In this peaceful afterlife, puzzles can be solved at your own pace. Through your journey you will learn to harness the power of the sun, the rains, the snow, and more. XING: The Land Beyond has been developed with accessibility in mind, and conforms to color-blindness, deafness, and has no time-constrains in its puzzle design.Virtual RealityXING: The Land Beyond has full VR support for HTC Vive and Oculus Rift, with options to use either SDK, as well as a range of controller options, including tracked motion controllers and traditional gamepads. Great care has been taken to ensure XING is an exciting and comfortable experience for all lovers of virtual worlds. We offer two distinct movement options for players: An innovative new motion controller-based free-movement system, with a balance of comfort and usability. We call this "reins", because it is similar to directing a horse when you ride. A more direct analog stick based movement system compatible with both motion controllers and gamepads - offering a more traditional experience with snap turning and smooth rotation options.

Like you have much greater freedom of movement and if you want to jump off that cliff or jump to that ledge you can. It also looks amazing in non-VR 4K and I have only run into one bug in world 3, and it was not a show stopping one. Now for the Pros vs. Cons:The Cons: There are bugs, as seen on the discussion for this game but I also see the developer responding there as well. The game is short. There are only 4 worlds to visit, and even with the extra runes you have to collect there is limited replayability. If you miss one of the runes, and need to go back for it you have to complete every puzzle in a world you have completed up to it. This often means you have to replay every puzzle, jump, and vista up to the rune you missed.The Pros: This game looks amazing and the environments are properly varied. You also get to cycle rain, snow, and if its night or day, and this makes every one of the landscapes really come alive. Also I find the architecture stunning, especially in the 4th desert world. Freedom of movement and encouragement to explore. There are hidden runes and plenty to explore, and I really wanted to poke in every nook and cranny to just see how beautiful the game was. Also in most cases if you can see it, you can get to it in this game. I have enjoyed the puzzles in this game and found them to be about the correct difficulty, as in I could solve them with some though and exploration and never got so stuck that I could not think about the puzzle and figure it out. I also like the various mechanics the puzzles use and find them varied enough they don't get repetitive. The music works very well for this game, and while there is nothing to make me run out and buy the sound track I did not find at any point that I got tired of hearing the same track loop. The poems that lay out each worlds story are fully voiced and really add to the game. The writing of them is superb, but I do have one gripe. That is the voice only plays the first time you pick up one of the verses.. Overall I am not a fan of this game, but it must have something about it for me to complete as much as I did. I found the over-use of the same kind of puzzle, irritating. For example the jumping from one platform to another where the distance between the two areas are very critical, and is most irritating when you have completed 90% of the jumps only to fail athe last. It's not the style of adventure games that I prefer, I like to solve problems, not bash the hell out of my keyboard just to get from A to B. On top of that there are a number of game-play traps where I found myself looking for a solution and trying to gain access to unusual places only to find I have found myself in an impossible (in my view) unrecoverable position, and the only answer for me was to restart the level. I believe that happened to me in all 4 lands. To be fair to the software developers my screen adapter driver was not recommended, but in attempting to upgrade my driver I was putting my PC in jeopardy, by getting at one point the dreaded blue screen of death. I was lucky and able to restore the PC but decided to not risk any further upgrades. The visual graphic appearance is excellent, the music very pleasing, but ultimately the game-play is not my style.. Mystlike, not too difficult or long. Puzzles are well-thought-out and mechanics were easy to learn and apply. Compact and visually pleasing levels. The game's stories told through poetry are pleasant but often depressing.. Beautiful game! Love the story telling and the atmosphere. Looking forward to a replay some day.. Love this puzzle game. The graphics are outstanding. It is a fun, relaxing game.. Got about 5 hours under my belt and just started the 3rd world. I'm really enjoying this game. I'm not having any issues with graphics or performance. I've tweaked a lot of settings and I have a high-end PC, so YMMV.I'd have to say that this is a very laid back and chill puzzle game. It's mostly about the atmosphere and the spoon-fed poetic story snipets along the way. There's something almost Zen about it. It's not very deep and the puzzles start out very straight-forward. It does increase in difficulty as you go, but not a whole lot that it's going to frustrate you. If you are familiar with The Witness, this is NOT anything like that. The puzzle complexity and more open world setting of The Witness is a much bigger challenge. But that's ok. Xing is like a themepark with enough environmental puzzles to make the scenery more enjoyable.Someone complained about the background music. I found it soothing, but there is an option to turn the volume of the music down/off, so if it bugs you, there is that option. And then maybe play your own.Personally, I'm glad that they chose the locomotion method that they did. I don't suffer from VR sickness at all, and I find the experience of moving through the world of Xing nice and relaxing. I like the method for interacting with objects. I often play seated, with player height raised via OpenVR Advanced Settings. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to reach certain objects, but the game mechanic makes it super easy.All in all, it has made for the type of VR experience that I really dig.. Now I've cleared the game, I'm ready to write this review.Please note that I only played it in VR, so if you want a flat screen review, consider reading other reviews :)Also, my game time indicates 8.9h but I had several days without internet, so I played Xing without increasing the game timer (I'd say two afternoons of 3-4h).Xing is one of my best VR experiences so far. The genre does not fit to everyone but that was to me right on the spot.This game is peaceful, exotic, made me feel to be somewhere else, made me think outside of the box (some puzzles are tough), with a tiny touch of spirituality.And in this genre, it's a masterpiece, no less.One word of advice on configuration : turn foliage to max, even if you need to set lots of things on low. that's what I did. Nothing feels more exotic than lowering your head when you go through some trees' branches.. Extremely disappointed because this is exactly the kind of games I like but due to a stupid no-teleport moving system it's a puke-fest for my wife an I. We both were expecting a good time and got NOTHING GOOD for the money spent!. Highly recommended! If you just like to wonder through a beautiful virtual world forgetting all the trouble in the world, this is a game for you. Graphics are beautiful and puzzles are intuitive and smart. It gave you plenty of time for game play for the money and the story was well told. At the end of the game, it was almost sad to leave the place.
