Description: Join the little salmon in virtual reality on his adventurous journey to the wide, open sea. Along the way, you will pass many of Mother Nature’s obstacles. Leap over rocks, avoid tree trunks and grow with your challenges.

To avoid ending up being a bear’s dinner, you’ll have to swim for your life with the little salmon, passing many dangerous obstacles in the water. Your adventure starts in a narrow brook, which flows into the wide, open sea and to freedom at the end of your journey.

Review: Salmon Race VR is a smooth and relaxing endless runner that sees you playing the role of a salmon starting off in the stream, then out to the big blue sea. At times it can look nice and with its soft guitar music playing in the background it’s a game you can easily relax with. Sadly that relaxation will soon fade when you start to realise the game is broke and pretty much unplayable. With no left or right movement of the fish, you can only get as far as the fishing nets and that is it! Personally, I feel that is a bit of a shame as this game would have been something nice to download and relax with, but until it is updated its best avoided.
