    Super good, a lot of fun to play and more than just a demo. It may be short (3-6 hours I'd say), but it's still a full game, and the best part is that it's free and already comes preinstalled on the PS5. If you do happen to get hold of one, you should definitely play this.

    Очень красиво и креативно сделанная демонстрация возможностей нового геймпада с элементами платформинга. Понравилось собирать артефакты и вспоминать железки прошлого) А босс-динозавр внезапно даже дал немного прикурить, не ожидал такого, проходил игру налегке. Короче, прикольная демка, советую с ней ознакомится.Очень красиво и креативно сделанная демонстрация возможностей нового геймпада с элементами платформинга.

    Hermoso videojuego, increíble que una demo se disfrute tanto e incluso más que varios juegos completos, si este juego tuviese más niveles fácilmente podría ser un titulo más.

    La jugabilidad es muy sencilla, un plataformero que aprovecha al máximo de las bondades del nuevo Dualsense, que se compone de 4 mundillos fragmentados en etapas y un jefe final.

    Un aspecto que me gustó mucho son los coleccionables: los gachas y piezas de rompecabezas que contienen consolas y periféricos de anterior generación de PlayStation, muy curioso, incluso vi artículos que no conocía y yo que creía que ya había visto todo.

    Otro punto me gustó mucho es la cantidad de referencia de grandes éxitos clásicos y juegos representativos de Playstation, como God War, Crash Bandicoot, Gravity Rush, Uncharted, etc, etc.

    Una demo que todo usuario de PS5 debería pasarse sí o sí, incluso diría platinarlo, una corta aventura mientras recorremos y observamos toda la trayectoria de PlayStation.    … Expand

    Best possible introduction to the PS5 console and the controller. Just play it right after plugging the console for the very first time. Also, really enjoyed a nostalgia trip to the past PS generations.

    Игра великолепна в своём исполнении. Не смотря на то, что это демонстрационная игра при покупке пятой плойки, но она достаточно грамотна. На столько грамотна, что детишки её просто обожают, а выбивать платину в ней легко и интересно. Много возможностей где, как и с чем взаимодействовать.Игра великолепна в своём исполнении.

    It’s really hard to rate this game because it feels more like an overall experience than a game. With that being said, it shows off the capabilities and mechanics of the PS5 controller very well. As a game it is pretty short, but for what it is on its own merits, it is solid. Definitely replayable.

    Now, I rarely give games a 10/10 but Astro's Playroom is a masterclass in its field, not only just in the 3D platforming genre but in terms of gaming as a whole.

    This game is much more than a demo. An excellent platformer that takes you through Sony's history while introducing users to all the various functionality of the PlayStation controller.

    白金。
    这游戏让我想起了曾经在商场里第一次看到鬼武者2金城武的脸时的那种震撼。
    从高中同学那儿了解了现在的游戏机，也在他的帮助下买了第一台PS2。 之后大学买了psp，ps3,nds，过一年买了xbox360，wii，到工作首发美亚入了ps4。 最后陆陆续续的买了3ds,x1s,ns 去年本来熬夜看完了ps发布会，5点半才又去睡，哪知道6点就放货了，熬了两个月，每天3，4点睡，推特一有消息就扑到电脑上去抢，终于在11月抢到一台寄到加拿大亲戚家，可惜寄回来运费太贵。 实在不想便宜黄牛。 12月才在德亚买到了xsx，国行发售后才终于玩上了ps5。 这个游戏让我想到了很多，很多彩蛋让我会心一笑，让我回忆过去。 而当儿子的哭声响起，又让我回到现实。    白金。

    The more you play it, the more you forget this a tech demo. This utilizes the DualSense's capabilities perfectly and is a treat to play. After a while, I started playing like a sandbox 3d platformer and looking every corner of these beautiful to find what I was missing. This game truly deserves more credit!

    Astro's Playroom es un juego encantador, que perfectamente podría tener su propia franquicia dentro del género de plataformas. Es precioso de principio a fin, con una jugabilidad increiblememte precisa y cómoda. Muestra todas las posibilIdades del nuevo mando de PS5, creando una experiencia muy grata. Sin lugar a dudas, recomiendo a todo el mundo estrenar su PS5 con este juego.

    The quality of this game is perfect, it makes full use of the functions of the controller, the collection is very good, and the point is that it's free.

    Probably one of the best pack in games with any console. Incredibly charming and fun. Does a great job of showing off what the console and controller can do while still being enjoyable all on it's own merits. Extremely excited to see more from this team.

    Es sorprendente que semejante juegazo venga gratis en la consola. Me parece un delito que alguien que se compre la consola no lo juegue. Plataformas del más alto nivel.

    I'm a sucker for a great 3D platformer. If only this game was a full blown game and not a tech demo. i liked this so much it was hard to play sackboy after which is also a great game. But this was just so good that it outdid sackboy and imo kinda sabotaged it by accident lol

    Best tech demo ever created, fun little game, and the dual sense demonstration was amazing, Returnal was the next best example to demonstrate the power of dual sense and haptic feedback.

    This is a lot of fun and really showcases the PS5 and it’s controller. Also it is free. Everyone should give it a go. I’ve only not given it 10/10 because it is a short game and a little too easy.

    With all around fantastic gameplay, graphics, design, and just overall fun, I’d argue that under different circumstances, this could have even been considered a game of the year contender. I never realized just how much the Sony PlayStation had influenced my life until I played this game.

    Astro’s Playroom is way more than just a technological demo. It’s probably the best way to introduce players to the new DualSense controller. And it comes free with PlayStation 5. [Issue#308]
