How it feels

A magical action game where you physically perform arm gestures to cast spells, fighting colorful monsters in a bright fantasy world.

What players say

Players describe it as a short VR spellcasting game where you wave your arms to cast spells, but many find the motion recognition unreliable and the combat gets boring fast. Some note a false virus warning from the install, and comparisons to a low-budget Magicka in VR come up.
