About The Tear
The Tear is a VR adventure set in a dreamlike world of fairytale creatures. You search for the secret gate to the Otherworld and try to save both the magical world and the one beyond your headset.
A circular puzzle
The world is one large circular puzzle, with no single path through it: your beginning may be the end. You respond to your surroundings as you explore, including trying to gain a fairy’s trust so it will land on your hand and encountering sphinxes whose mercy is uncertain. One playthrough takes between 30 minutes and one hour.
