IronWolf VR is a roomscale submarine game playable either singleplayer or online co-op with motion controls. Built from the ground up for VR, each part of the submarine has been crafted for an optimal VR experience.
Players consistently praise the game's ability to make them feel like they are truly operating a real submarine. The developers have meticulously recreated the interior, from the authentic-looking wheels, levers, and switches to the claustrophobic and cramped quarters. One reviewer with real-life submarine experience noted that the game "has the feeling of being back on a submarine" and that "the use of room scale is absolutely phenomenal."
A major selling point is the cooperative multiplayer, which allows up to four players to work together as a submarine crew. Players take on distinct roles such as captain, helmsman, engineer, and torpedo operator, all of which require coordination to effectively operate the vessel. Reviewers highlight the thrill of working together as a team, with one stating that "the best part is definitely the interaction with other people via the voice-chat." The cooperative dynamic adds an extra layer of challenge and immersion, as players must communicate and collaborate to successfully complete missions.
The game requires players to carefully manage resources like power and oxygen, monitor gauges and instruments, and physically interact with a variety of controls and mechanisms. As one reviewer put it, "Reloading Torpedos is real work here! And that is how VR puts you into the Game, more than a stereoscopic 3D effect ever could do!" The attention to detail in the game's mechanics helps further the sense of immersion and challenge.
Players highlight the intensity and challenge of the game's gameplay, especially in the heat of battle. The fast-paced action, with players frantically trying to evade enemy ships and depth charges while also managing the internal systems, creates a palpable sense of tension. One reviewer described a harrowing experience of their submarine taking on water and slowly sinking, leading to a tense final moments as the crew resigned themselves to their fate. The high stakes and pressure of these situations are a major draw for many players.
Reviewers praise the developers' commitment to improving and expanding the game over time. They regularly add new content and features, with one player noting that "the developers are releasing almost constant updates that add to the complexity of the simulation, while still making the game simple and accessible." This ongoing support and evolution of the game is seen as a major positive by the community.
