For whatever reason, I can never throw things accurately in VR games and often, the object just ends up falling instead of launching from my hand. However, certain parts force you to throw objects and I found these moments to be far more frustrating than fun. You have to use 2 PlayStation Move controllers and the controls generally work well as most tasks can be completed without performing anything trickier than tapping a button or spinning a crank. I'm speaking at a very high level here because you end up doing far too many tasks to list in a review. Tasks include rotating buildings, searching for objects, throwing stuff at targets, and leading characters to certain points. The gameplay merely involves you standing in a central spot as the Ghost Giant then you interact with your surroundings in order to move on to the next scene. Also, some characters repeat lines way too often which gets annoying fast. The voice acting is mostly superb although some voices seem out of place like one character whose southern accent stands out like a sore thumb. As you progress, you'll come across many charming characters and they reminded me of the animals in the Animal Crossing universe although looking at them in VR makes them much more adorable. You play as this ghost and after the little guy gets used to you, you help him perform tasks that would be much more difficult if he attempted them by himself. Anyway, he soon sees a giant ghost emerge which he is initially afraid of. The story begins with him crying by a lake but we don't find out why until about halfway through the story and I definitely won't spoil anything in this review because it's a journey that you'll have to experience for yourself. Ghost Giant stars a wee feline lad named Louis Lafleur. □ If I were an artist, I'd probably paint hot dogs, too! │ Our reviewers are discouraged from reading other reviews before writing theirs in order to avoid contributing to an echo chamber. VR games with effective storytelling are hard to come by but Zoink's latest imaginative virtual world is here to change that. Maciejewski playing a PS4 with PSVR on May 9, 2019
