When looking for a VR game full of puzzles and secrets, you have to come across Neverout. This is a production based on the original mechanics of the Gamedust studio, in which we end up in a mysterious prison. The prison is shaped like a cube and in many places refers to the cult movie Cube from 1997. The player observes the action through the eyes of the protagonist, becoming him and looking for a way out of the claustrophobic surroundings.(Storyline via IGDB)
