Description: Step inside the world of Mr. Robot like never before and experience a pivotal moment from Elliot’s past.
Review: The Mr Robot Virtual Reality Experience is a shared experience that has since vanished from the Within app library. It starts out in Elliot’s apartment and you are experiencing getting high with them because he wants to be relaxed to go on his date with Shayla and he’s got a song stuck in his and he starts to become more and more paranoid about sounds and the things he sees.
The good news is Shayla shows up she thinks he loves Coney Island so she drags him onto the Wonder Wheel attraction. But then it starts to go wrong as she starts humming the song that was stuck in Elliot’s head. But the good news is that it all turns out fine.
This odd sort of TV show promo is becoming more the norm these days with other shows doing pretty much the same. Being in any scene with your favourite TV show characters is a great experience and one that any fan of the show would have loved. This is a one of a kind VR experience that is a great example of VR marketing done right.
