VR Gambler

by Robert DeFord profile

2017

About the Story

You start at the entrance to the Gold Coast Casino's new Virtual Reality Gaming Room. There is a neon sign over the doorway that says: GO ON A VR ADVENTURE! WIN BIG!

This parser-based game features puzzles, turn-based combat, leveling up, treasure, loot, weapons, armor, and classic adventuring. There is an integral non-spoiler hint system, and an in-game, contextual walkthrough for each puzzle and location. The player kit contains a map, a Windows interpreter, and instructions for setting up a Mac to run the game.

IFComp 2017 Review: VR Gambler by Robert DeFord
There is pleasure to be taken from simple things done well. VR Gambler may not be the most ambitious game in the competition, but it delivers on its straightforward premise: it's a well-implemented, largely bug-free, entertaining old-school RPG, which is both tidily written and technically sound.
