Review: ‘Tank Mechanic Simulator VR: Prologue’ is basically a demo of what will be a full-game one day of the original ‘Tank Mechanic Simulator‘. Much like ‘Car Mechanic Simulator VR‘ and even ‘Train Mechanic Simulator VR‘ it is clear that this game is not meant for VR at all and it is more an afterthought than a new way to play the game. To be fair to ‘Tank Mechanic Simulator VR’ there is a lot more interaction here and I can easily see tank fans loving this. But much like the other games in this series, it breaks down to being a point and click educational style game rather than a fun repair game. This free Prologue is well worth a look to get a gauge if you would like to pay for the full game, just be aware that it will be nothing more but more of the same jobs and tasks as you have already seen here.
While I have given this a silver award it is for this free version of the game only, NOT the full game which will come in a later review.
