Why play it

Neverout is a game like no other. It takes huge inspiration from the most classic 'Escape Room' in history. The game features reality bending, quantum physics, traps, obstacles and puzzles. All soaked in otherworldly and surreal setting. The players will test their imagination, sense of logic, 'out-of-the-box' thinking and how quick and swift they can adapt to ever-changing reality. 'Up' can become 'down', 'floor' - 'ceiling'. Fire might freeze and ice start burning. But there's always logic behind the madness and one thing is certain - there is always a solution. But some... Come with sacrifices.

Story and worldbuilding

When looking for a VR game full of puzzles and secrets, you have to come across Neverout. This is a production based on the original mechanics of the Gamedust studio, in which we end up in a mysterious prison. The prison is shaped like a cube and in many places refers to the cult movie Cube from 1997. The player observes the action through the eyes of the protagonist, becoming him and looking for a way out of the claustrophobic surroundings.

Neverout takes a simple premise and packs it into a small package. With just a few hours of playtime, it doesn't outstay its welcome, but there's not much variation to the puzzles and it could have done with a story. Puzzle fiends should definitely take a look, especially if they own a VR headset.

Despite the lack of a story it’s still hard to not recommend it. It’s a more immersive experience if you play it in PlayStation VR but if you don’t own one it’s worth playing on the TV as well. If you’ve got a few dollars and are in the mood for something new to test your brain with give Neverout a shot.

For all the fans of the iconic movie Cube, Neverout will be a pleasant experience. Especially fans of logic games will enjoy it, because to successfully play the game, you'll need to think hard.

Neverout has very good idea of its puzzles, but the implementation of movement and the camera system ruined the experience. You will probably get Dizzy or motion sickness after playing the game –even in non-VR mode. I hadn't got motion sick even after hours of playing FPS games, but I got Dizzy after playing less than one hour in non-VR mode and I forced into playing it in small time intervals. In the end i must say that Neverout is a game with very good puzzles that also has various problems.

Neverout is a well thought out and tricky puzzle game which is playable in both VR and Flat mode. With a similar concept to Cube, the film from 1997, each new ‘room’ you fall into offers a new challenge which you must overcome in order to progress further and get out of this prison! It offers a decent challenge and some of the puzzles are rather cryptic which may take you a while to work out the solutions for. Puzzle fans will love the challenge and casuals will enjoy the experience, especially if you don your VR headset and play it fully immersed within the 6×6 grid-based environments. Either way, Neverout is certainly one to pick up if you like your puzzles!

Neverout it's a very basic puzzle game, too much. The basic idea is appreciable, but there are no great ideas and the variety is reduced to the bone.

Even if its best experienced using a VR headset as it was originally intended, Neverout on Switch is at most worth a quick look for it concept and intriguing puzzles.

This easy and accessible first person puzzler has its flaws.

As the Nintendo Switch has no virtual reality capabilities, this means Neverout cannot fully live up to its expectations. Despite its interesting challenges and its good difficulty curve, Neverout feels like it's not at its true level.

A fun puzzle to have on the go, to pick up and play a couple of levels while waiting on the bus. Just like physical cube puzzles, have a fun time challenging yourself, but don't expect a story to keep you invested. Recommended for puzzle fans!
