The Take puts a spy-themed party game into a VR comic book setting

Stuido Studios‘ The Take is a hot-seat virtual reality game that combines secret agent shenanigans with a comic book aesthetic. It’s out now for HTC Vive and Windows Mixed Reality headsets, with an Oculus Rift version to come soon. The studio is also planning on porting it to PlayStation VR.

The Take hinges on being a party game for people to gather around and play. One person has a certain amount of time to hide a piece of intel and set traps, and then they pass the headset to the second player, who must find the hidden object before the clock runs down. It has three different rooms, and each features secret compartments. This lends it some replayability as both the hider and seeker will discover new nooks and crannies.
