This game looks it might be nice but WARNING --- As of this review (1/14/2018) this game does NOT work with the Oculus touch controllers. (Several people have indicated they have the same problem in the community hub) Since that's what I have, I can't play the game, and so I am giving it a "not recomended" I would like to point out that the game SAYS...
