Cinderella's Fairy Godmother waived a wand, and in the case of Project Self-Sufficiency, they stroked a keyboard The posting on social media was the “magic” that led to hundreds of dresses being donated. Project Self-Sufficiency's Prom Shop is their Fairy Godmother. Just as Cinderella needed a Fairy Godmother to get her dressed for the ball, there are a lot of girls out there who need some help getting a prom dress. Until then, A Township Tale is a decent, if flawed, VR game that you will love even as you sometimes curse it under your Oculus headset.NEWTON - It has been called the oldest story in the world, and apparently it - the tale of Cinderella - is still current. Developers Alta have been great about responding to player feedback and updating the game regularly, and I am sure that quests and events and maybe even new areas will be added in the future. This is a game that, for the moment anyway, has the resource gathering/crafting cycle as its only real gameplay element, and that will eventually grow boring no matter how great your fellow players are.īut there are lots of reasons to be hopeful that A Township Tale will grow, and improve, and eventually fulfill its potential to be a truly great MMO in VR. This wouldn’t be a problem if the open world was more massive but A Township Tale’s world is limited and even opportunities for exploration dry up after a while. There’s no story to A Township Tale - no quests, no wars to fight, and no overarching mystery to uncover. The most prominent element missing is the lack of an “endgame” or long-term set of goals or missions to drive you forward and keep you hooked.

I say potential because there a couple of things missing before it gets to that level. There’s potential in A Township Tale’s regular roles and emergent social connections to make this a VR MMO you’ll happily get lost in, and invest in for many many hours. You can be a woodcutter, a warrior (there are monsters in the forest and mountains), a cook, a carpenter - whatever appeals to you. You’ll eventually learn and make progress in A Township Tale, and you’ll have some really enjoyable times working with your fellow human players - you might even take on a regular profession and truly master it.
