  Arca’s Path is at once a flowery, majestic adventure that immerses you in the magic of its world and in the madness of its moments, while also presenting another side that consists of a mundane, empty trek through a dead world. And this juxtaposition can be seen in all areas of Arca’s Path, from its gameplay to its design and visual makeup.

  Beautifully designed and an interesting idea, Arca’s Path rarely expands beyond the simplicity of its novelty in a meaningful enough way. It wasn’t long before I wanted to untie my hands from behind my back and actually use a controller. I’m glad it exists simply to try things outside of the box in VR, but this is a building block, not a definer.

  We’ve said it multiple times this year and we’ll say it again; games like Arca’s Path VR are why we bought VR to begin with. Games and experiences that could not have been possible are now a reality and for this reason. If you own PSVR, this is a no brainer. Fans of both relaxing and challenging games will all find something to love here so there really is something for everyone.

  There’s no denying that Arca’s Path is a safe debut from DRI (or at least as safe as you can get with VR), but that doesn’t mean it’s not worth your time. This is a perfectly palatable little marble maze that straddles the line between challenge and fairness with mostly successful results. Most importantly, though, it’s that rare VR game that genuinely feels like anyone can pick up and play. For DRI, I suspect that’s mission accomplished.

  Arca’s Path is yet another title that PlayStation VR users won’t want to miss. It’s most importantly a relaxing and tranquil puzzler, but with a brand new way to play, controlling the experience with the movement of your head is an ingenious input method that proves how far the technology has come. Fun, inventive, and beautiful, Arca’s Path should be played by every VR aficionado.

  I came away from Arca’s Path rather impressed. I didn’t originally think such a simple concept could become a full game. However, Arca’s Path does exactly what it needs to do with the concept then gets out. It’s a fantastic entry point for those looking to dip their toes into a VR headset. It’s also being a solid game for veterans looking for something new to play. This is a path well worth following.
