There's an incredible sense of scale to these environments, further emphasized by our small protagonist. Each part of the world is a huge and detailed diorama, from ancient castle walls and lush green woods to icy peaks, with yourself sitting in the middle. Gameplay was in line with what I'd already played, and it took a little while until Book II found its stride and offered up new mechanics to expand the tool set established in the original. The first hour is still as lovely as the entire first entry, but that's about it. Truth be told, Moss: Book II needed a bit of time to reel me in. What follows is a little odyssey across different regions and the occasional interwoven boss fight to save the lands once and for all - or something along those lines because the ending of Book II doesn't fully put an end to the story.

Once again, we are the mystical reader assisting Quill in her new quest, which is much larger in scope and requires her to obtain a number of glass shards spread across the lands. In part one, players entered the world of Moss as 'The Reader' through a magical book to assist mouse Quill in her quest to rid the land of an evil occupation led by the snake Sarffog.Īfter defeating the snake in an epic final battle and freeing Quill's uncle in the process, the initial danger seemed averted for now, but the land is still very much at risk of slipping into darkness. Book II doesn't necessarily require you to have played the first, but it's still a great game and seamlessly transitions into this sequel, making it a must-play to get the most out of the second part. If you haven't played Moss, turn back now. Luckily, Moss: Book II successfully continues and expands the fantastical world of its predecessor, even though it's very much cut from the same cloth. Moss: Book II picks up right after the ending of the first title and has some pretty big shoes to fill. It wasn't exactly a VR revolution, but it still stands as one of the best. It's a mostly stationary VR game played sitting down with mostly conventional controls.

On paper, it didn't seem like a big deal. Moss was one of my very first VR experiences on PSVR about four years ago, and it was a perfect introduction to VR.
