Description: Lemuria: Lost in Space is a unique adventure, full of mysteries, puzzles and shocking discoveries. It’s a combination of point ‘n click adventure, RPG and survival game.
Review: It’s not often you see one of these, but ‘Lemuria: Lost in Space – VR Edition’ is a point and click adventure that is set in space. It’s an odd game for sure and one that takes a lot of getting used to, especially when it comes to movement. While there is said to be over 100 rooms to explore but you would have seen most of them within the first hour or so of gameplay, but at least the storyline does hold your interest all the way through. The game itself just feels far too retro to be good and doesn’t feel good to play at all. It just feels to me like VR was an afterthought rather than a serious addition to the main game. This makes the £10.99 asking price a hard one to swallow, but unless this was free anyway I won’t be recommending it. A good try I suppose, just an epic fail in translation.
