    A refreshing dip. Things don’t look as impressive under this virtual sea as they do in the video clips, but there’s still plenty to keep you gently bobbing along. [Issue#178, p.83]

    Beyond Blue is a commendable effort and project, but it is too short to manage to fulfill its purpose. Also although educational, the game does not present any information which you didn’t already see in all the docuseries available. The information about most of the animals resumes to short trivia like information, the only details being offered only about the whales. Despite these shortcomings, Beyond Blue is a game everyone should experience. It is ideal for younger audiences and can be the perfect family activity. The price tag is a bit steep compared to what the game offers, but after a discount Beyond Blue should be considered by everyone who wants to relax and escape into a beautiful world for a couple of hours.

    Beyond Blue is a relaxing, short $20 edutainment game that’ll be a fun time for gamers who are curious about the deep blue sea and its inhabitants. Just don’t go into it expecting gameplay that’s deeper than a puddle.

    Beyond Blue is a concise experience. You can finish it in about two to three hours, and you can 100% it in less than five. While I really enjoyed all of the educational value that the game provides, if you don’t happen to be interested in the real-world ocean, there isn’t any reason for you to play this game. So, if swimming around for two hours scanning fish, watching educational videos, and learning more about the ocean sounds up your alley, Beyond Blue is perfect for you. However, the game’s subpar graphics, terrible technical performance, and melodramatic plot make it tough to enjoy the surreal adventure under the sea.

    Игра нормикс, но на любителя. Может показаться скучной, но эта игра - это документалка о подводном мире, таких сейчас очень мало.Игра нормикс, но на любителя. Может показаться скучной, но эта игра - это документалка о подводном мире, таких сейчас очень мало.
