last year the response has been overwhelmingly positive. \u00a0Scott Hayden at Road to VR\u00a0<a class=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/www.roadtovr.com\/review-dead-secret-one-early-great-successes-vr-thrillers\/\">called Dead Secret<\/a>\u00a0&#8220;by far one of the longest, and most engaging VR experiences I\u2019ve ever had\u2014mobile or\u00a0otherwise,\u201d while VRGiant\u00a0<a class=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/vrgiant.com\/mobile-vr-reviews\/deadsecret\/\">named it a \u201cmust play,\u201d<\/a>\u00a0and Gamezebo called it an \u201c<a class=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gamezebo.com\/2016\/01\/04\/top-10-must-play-games-for-the-gear-vr\/\">unforgettable experience<\/a>.\u201d \u00a0Time Magazine labeled

href=\"http:\/\/www.imgawards.com\/games\/dead-secret\/\">nominated for &#8220;Best VR Game&#8221;<\/a> at the IMG Awards. \u00a0Winners are announced next week, and we&#8217;ve got our fingers and toes double-crossed.<\/p>\n<p>User feedback has been stellar as well. \u00a0Our analytics show that players are spending hours playing DEAD SECRET, and the title\u00a0has managed to remain one of the top-ten best-selling applications on Gear VR for almost its entire tenure on that store. \u00a0We&#8217;re pretty happy about our 4.5 \/ 5 star rating as well.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve started to see Let&#8217;s Play videos of DEAD SECRET appear. \u00a0These are great for giving you a taste of the game play. \u00a0Here&#8217;s a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=wP89CpBVFaA\">video
