Mindset brings mechanical hand tracking puzzles to Meta Quest
Gear puzzles, rotating cubes, and delicate hand-tracking controls: These are the themes of the VR game Mindset from Carbon Studio (Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Tempestfall), which is available on Meta Quest 2 and Pro for $9.99. In front of surreal backgrounds, players rotate floating cubes, stretch wires and even shift gravity. Of course, the cogwheels are also inserted into each other by hand or with controllers until they spin. The protagonist Jack, trapped in his subconscious, must fathom the background of his dilemma and fiddle his way back to life.
