Crisis on the Planet of the Apes

Mechanics

In Crisis on the Planet of the Apes, players observe the action from the first person perspective (FPP). During the game, one mostly explores the locations and fights multiple opponents. Specimen 139 is not unarmed, as he makes perfect use of his own fists and the weapons found along the way.

The game utilizes both the headgear (that players use to freely look around the in-game environment) and dedicated motion controllers that allow players to pick up items and aim with a firearm, but also hide behind covers, climb elements of the environment and move around the locations. The developers have prepared an original controls system, in which player has to move their shoulders to reflect the way apes walk. In order to increase the immersion, developers have limited the elements of the interface to a minimum.

Technical aspects

Crisis on the Planet of the Apes features decent visuals, considering the fact that the game was developed for VR headgear. In order to play, one has to have both the headgear and dedicated motion controllers.
