With your companion bot he will help you give the supplies you need to save the land and make it beautiful again. This game was fun and the puzzles were decent, but not challenging. length of the game was very short even though you have a free mode after. The music was relaxing and helpful when trying to figure out the puzzle. the sound of the weather change felt real. the price of $20 is not the price you should not buy this game for. and they are some hic up that needs to be fix when tracking happens. its still a game to try, but wait for a price drop.… Expand

    Really disappointing. This is a game that I would recommend to people who were stumped by Portal, thought it was way too long, and don't want a story. It doesn't venture into the exploring the space technology of VR and motion tracking at all. It's polished, and relaxing, but that's really about it.

I hope there's a lot more content coming, including a story and more than a very, very short amount of gameplay. If this were early access I might grant it an 8.… Expand

    There's not a lot of variety to the gameplay and you are confined to one location, however controlling the weather and looking down on the landscape as it changes is a pretty magical experience.

    Although ingenious, Symphony of the Machine's gameplay is heavily reshaped by the PSVR's intrinsic limits on tracking.

    In theory, this could be an interesting puzzler. With its simple concept and rewards, like witnessing the results of your efforts as weather phenomena, it is immersive from the start. But it is just as hard to get into, since the control scheme is all over the place.

    Symphony of the Machine is a short puzzle game that really taps into the concepts of virtually reality. The game is kept simple, whilst the puzzles are tactical and challenging. If you are looking for a great VR puzzle game that should only take a few hours to complete, give this gem a spin.
