    The gameplay is very short - around 5 or 6 hours which is a terrible value. This game does nothing new, I don't even understand third person VR and how it brings anything new to the table. If you like quirky characters you might like this. Otherwise I'll be playing Firewall Zero Hour

    This game does nothing new. If you like quirky characters you might like this ever but it's so fast you miss the action and fun of the fight .

    Didn't think that a platform for vr was possible. But this is a great integration of the genre with virtual reality. The character is super cute, level design is super mario level or better, soundtrack brings happiness in every play session. Every level is unique and different and concepts are almost never reused. Bossfights are quite simple but really entertaining. It' s a must buy forDidn't think that a platform for vr was possible. But this is a great integration of the genre with virtual reality.

    Not the worst.Not the best VR game. I don't know if those people are really actual reviewers or companies accounts bots to make the game a 10 out of 10 and make buyers to buy this game. The game actually gives you the full potential of controller. Beside that there is nothing new. Its not superb game and of course its not similar to NES mario as some people write (i guess they never playNot the worst.Not the best VR game.

Its not superb game and of course its not similar to NES mario as some people write (i guess they never play Astrobot and Mario). Imagine any 3D platformer in VR. Exactly the same as Astrobot it would be. I giving 0 because this score is unfair and make consumers to buy a game without really gives anything. If you want a good VR experience try Resident Evil 7 and not Astrobot.… Expand

    Sony’s in-house studio brought us a really well made platformer. It is also the second (after Moss) mandatory buy for every owner of PS VR. [13/2018, p.79]

    Creative, VR-exclusive gameplay ideas embedded in a sugar-sweet world with pleasant mini-robots. A feast for platformer fans.

    The first board meeting held for Astro Bot Rescue Mission could have featured a single word written in all caps on a whiteboard: CHARM. It oozes through the game’s pores, but never feels like a cheap or thoughtless cash-grab; this isn’t another me-too half-baked mascot platformer fast-tracked out the door.
