Description: As Co-Pilot of the retrieval team, the player will have the full experience of a space explorer on Mars. Unearthing Mars provides hours of unique gameplay experiences, ranging from navigating a landing craft through a sandstorm to driving a Mars rover. From puzzle-solving to first-person shooting, the game will allow players to resolve challenges from a variety of game genres.
Gameplay-wise it is pretty simple to play for the first few missions, but once you start to do more complicated things the controls do take a while to get used to. So don’t expect to rush into each mission, you will need to take the time to find out what you are doing and how to control it. The good news is the elements of the puzzle don’t require too much thinking and you are pretty much guided through everything anyway.
While there isn’t a whole lot of gameplay in Unearthing Mars the story drives it onwards for quite a long time. Sadly I did finish the game with just a few hours making it not worth the asking price as is the norm with PSVR games. But yet, while it lasted I was enjoying it. Graphically it has good times and bad times, but when it looks good it does indeed look very good. So is it worth a download? Not really at its current price, but it’s good enough to make it well worth a purchase in a sale.
