Review: Mars Odyssey tries to tick all the right boxes and to be fair to it does a good job as well. It looks great, especially some of the Mars robots and there is even a small amount of educational content here. While it is much more of a short VR experience (the whole thing lasts for just over 20 mins) I think it is one experience worth playing. That £5.59 price tag is a bit too much too swallow and I think waiting for this to appear in a sale would be the best course of action. If you ay just a few quid for this you should appreciate how good it looks, but also understand how short it is.
