There are very few things to solve, practically a few mazes. Sometimes the game can challenge your navigation skills. But mostly you're just... there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote: There are no monsters chasing you or jumping suddenly towards you, but the game can feel oppressive. POOLS plays on fears of getting lost, the dark, and tight spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe game has no user-interface and no dialogue. No background music. Instead, the game uses sounds to make you feel like you're really there. The sounds and echo change depending on the room you're in. Walking in water is slower. All of these things makes the game feel more real and creates a tense atmosphere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere's no typical story, no characters to meet, and you won't find any notes in game. But as you explore and advance further, you start to notice that the game's world changes around you. Rooms look and feel different. Each chapter has something unique. Constantly you're exploring new places, each with its own kind of mystery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePOOLS has six unique chapters, each taking 10 to 30 minutes to play.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePOOLS is inspired by a internet phenomenons \"Liminal spaces\", \"Found footage\" and \"Backrooms\" - specifically \"Backrooms Pools\" or \"Poolrooms\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the original artists behind the Poolrooms concept is Jared Pike. Other inspirations include Matt Studios Poolrooms videos from 2022, Mortain Colors, Anemoiapolis by Andrew Quist and Kane Pixels: The Backrooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlayStation VR2 optional.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Red Art Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52089911738649,"sku":null,"price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0965\/0670\/8249\/files\/IMG-9344.png?v=1773330316","url":"https:\/\/lootboxgaming.us\/products\/pools-psvr2-compatible-playstation-5-pre-order","provider":"LOOT BOX GAMING","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
