Shadow Point by Coatsink is a story-driven VR puzzle game that features narration by Sir Patrick Stewart and gives players a glimpse into a fantastical kingdom. In the immersive virtual game, players go on the search for a student who has been missing for more than a decade and must challenge themselves with brain teasers and optical illusions, as well as make the transition between two worlds using a special eyeglass.

The virtual reality room-scale puzzle game, which was recently unveiled at GDC 2019, is set to launch for [Oculus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cosmic-sugar) [Quest](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/othersight) and [Rift](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emirates-vr-experience) in the spring.

To get users oriented in the virtual world, the VR game begins with a demo that involves a movement tutorial and an introduction to some of the world's indoor and outdoor spaces.
