Overview Stones of Harlath:
Shipwrecked on the small island of Harlath, players will adventure through a semi-open-world environment and multiple dungeons, battling foes, solving puzzles, and ultimately discovering the nature of the curse that looms over the island. Stones of Harlath is a first person dungeon crawler in VR. Players will play as a powerful battle mage, wield swords, shields and maces and cast powerful magic by drawing runes with their controller. Stones of Harlath is inspired by classic dungeon crawlers, but enhanced by modern lighting and the immersive nature of VR. The game visual features include pixel-art textures, low poly models and high-quality lighting in a mix of 3D environments and 2D sprites. The mechanics themselves are well done, This game at first feels like it has one direction, a set path that you are supposed to follow but the more I played the more I felt the map felt more Open World. You can go this way, that way or even cut straight through and fight some monsters. The Dungeons are set paths but outside of the Dungeons if the Map was a little bigger this game would actually feel like it would need a Fast Travel System but with the current size it’s perfect just to hop around with Spells and what not

But the art style definitely gives it an edge against its competition. In addition to what feels like a quality classic dungeon crawler my favorite feature is probably the magic system. The only other rune based magic system I enjoyed came from OrbusVR, but this works a lot better in its initial release as spell recognition is a lot more consistent and reliable. Lastly while the magic system is versatile , the game makes sure to put you into situations where you have to find balance between your sword and mage play, so you’re encouraged to play like a battle-mage where you can’t just spam one or the other. There are always small things with new games that need improvements, but with this game it’s more of just QoL fixes, for example the Fire Places are extremely Loud and not connected to the Audio Settings, even with everything at the lowest and only Dialogue Volume up it still over powers the Dialogue Audio I’ve experienced, as well as the Crypt that you’re sent into by Friar Lyle.
