Press release:
Denver, CO — March 4th, 2022.
The independent video games publisher Versus Evil and the multi-award-winning indie games developer Mad About Pandas, today announced with great joy and excitement that their atmospheric first-person mystery game “Hitchhiker” is coming to Meta Quest VR via the Quest Store on March 10th, 2022.

In Hitchhiker, players find themselves on a mysterious journey along a dusty highway with no recollection of who they are or where they are going. Players piece together their memories by catching rides with strangers across the country who provide clues to your character’s past and solutions to various environmental puzzles.

“Bringing Hitchhiker into the VR gamespace made perfect sense from a narrative standpoint, particularly in the way we’ve been able to elevate the surreal road trip adventure with a player experience that feels like you’re actually inside the car.” Said Patrick Rau, Founder of Mad About Pandas.

Hitchhiker: A Mystery Game revolves around five distinct Hitch-hiked rides players take trying to recover lost memories through dialogue with an eclectic mix of drivers, each with their own quirky character traits.

Hitchhiker: A Mystery Game is the winner for Best Story at Game Connection and Gold Prize for Best Narrative at NYX.

Hitchhiker is also available on PC, PlayStation 4, XBox One, Nintendo Switch and mobile.
