Transference is a psychological thriller. Meet a troubled family and solve their riddle through a multi-branching narrative by experiencing the limits of techno-psychology and escaping a maze-like puzzle concealing a corrupted truth.
Transference's distressing subject matter and eerie atmosphere make for a strong horror experience, even if some of its potential is squandered by a non-committal narrative.
Transference is an experience fit for VR, and from that perspective, the game does a phenomenal job of providing tension, scares, and narrative beats. Those looking for value may feel a little short-changed, especially so without the implementation of virtual reality, but the overall package should leave you satisfied if horror and terror is your forte.
