Description: A VR interactive story about family, dreams, and the meaning of life. You will be an astronaut who failed the mission, gets stuck in space and haunted by past memories.
Review: The Journey Home is an oddity that is for sure. It’s a story based interactive experience that is essentially about a dying astronaut! But for me it doesn’t really come together well enough to make the story flow and when the story is all you have that is a shame. Sure, some of the graphics are OK, but then there are things that just seem out of place and unnecessary. For a freebie, I suppose it is still worth checking out, but I wouldn’t hold your breath expecting something amazing here.
