Description: An oddly captivating live action VR thriller. A narrative story that gives the viewer a better understanding of Stockholm Syndrome.
Review: ‘A CHALLENGE is all about how people start to suffer from something called Stockholm Syndrome which is a psychological response that occurs when hostages or abuse victims bond with their captors or abusers. A very serious subject matter indeed, but there are better ways to teach about such a powerful subject than this poorly made app. First up, the acting is terrible, there are parts blacked out and it seems no-one tested it before launching it as you spend a lot of the time looking straight up! But at least it is free and short so you could always try it for yourself and let me know in the comments below what you thought of it.
