The week 3 of February for Oculus Rift consist of 3 paid apps. I’ll also be adjusting the format of the Oculus weekly release (starting with this) a little to improve the reading experience.

Survive and escape a sinister underwater research facility where dark experiments have led to horrifying results.
SYREN is a VR survival horror game.
A scientist obsessed with eugenics builds an underwater research facility above an ancient lost city, in which he conducts horrific experiments in an attempt to recreate the lost species of ‘Syrens’ – the legendary inhabitants of the civilisation, that once existed in the ruins below.
You awaken into chaos. The lab in ruins; creaking under the immense pressure of the sea.
With the station reactor about to go critical, you have limited time to navigate out of the lab and evacuate the facility. With death everywhere, you soon learn that you are not alone. Some of the experiments have gotten loose.
In this stealth and survival game, you must solve puzzles to progress through a series of room scale scenes and always remain alert for the deadly Syrens who are hiding in the shadows.
