Reviews:

Multimedia World, May 1996

"The high-speed Locus is the first virtual reality game - one of the next big trends for PC gaming - out of the gate."

"This sports game plays much like hockey, except that you skate not only in a rink but on the walls and ceiling. If you war a VR head-mounted display, Locus lets you look over your shoulder as well as straight ahead."

PC Entertainment, February 1996

"In the year 2095, only one international pastime remains: violent tournaments called Triads that take place in giant arenas orbiting the Earth. Each Triad pits a trio of two-player teams against each other in three matches, each of which takes place in stadiums of different geometries such as rings and spheres."

"Eliminate both teams in two out of three contests, and you'll move on to the next Triad - or be drafted by a stronger team."
