Description: In 2026, the world is rapidly deteriorating due to climate change. Anaaya, a brilliant Inuit female scientist, is appointed to find a planet that humans can inhabit, and she’s joined by Melita, an advanced A.I sent to help her on the task. Together, they will embark on a journey against time to save humanity from extinction.
Review: Not even the extra long download over the top of the original download, but waiting until you are in VR to tell you is enough to make me bad mouth this amazing short VR story. Melita: A Human Journey not only looks great, flows smooth and has believable characters and voice acting, but its also deeply thought-provoking with an ending that will upset some people, annoy others and even make some people question the future of humanity itself. When it comes to short VR stories this is one of the very best of them, I just wish there was more than one chapter, but I still believe the asking price is bang on the money.
