What it does best
A brilliantly asymmetric VR-versus-screen hide-and-seek idea
The kind of local multiplayer that makes everyone yell
Hide-and-seek stealth where every twitch can betray you
A miniature dystopia with oppressive scale and mystery
What might put you off
Short-lived without a steady supply of local opponents
Uneven precision and VR usability
The setup
What you are walking into
Panoptic is a local multiplayer VR game that pits you against a friend, where you play as either the giant Overseer or tiny Challenger in a stealthy game of cat and mouse. Will the Challenger slip away undetected through the crowds, or will the Overseer track them down with their powerful laser eye?
