  • The VR experience is visually stunning and provides an immersive planetarium environment that feels better than a real one.
  • The free content is enjoyable, and the paid DLC offers high-quality educational films that enhance the overall experience.
  • It's a fun and nostalgic way to explore space, making it a great option for both space enthusiasts and those testing out their VR devices.
  • The game is more of a VR movie than an interactive experience, which may disappoint those looking for gameplay.
  • There are limited free offerings, and many features require additional purchases, making it feel like a teaser for the full experience.
  • Some users experienced technical issues, such as the game not starting or causing motion sickness due to its design.
  • music
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the experience is generally praised for enhancing the atmosphere, particularly in the planetarium and during key moments in missions, where it adds drama and engagement. However, some users criticize the DLC for its generic and uninteresting music, which detracts from the overall experience. Overall, the music complements the visuals well, making for an immersive experience, especially during interactive elements like the laser show.

    • “Besides the cool planetarium with the awesome space music, it has a couple of films that are just like having your own personal on-demand IMAX experience.”
    • “It uses lots of great 3D infographics to explain the basics, and the music really helps sell the drama of some of the trickier moments in the mission.”
    • “You can see the laser show or just see the stars and listen to the music for free.”
    • “The DLC is more about propaganda - boring, focused on political themes, and features awful generic music. Not recommended.”
    • “Aside from films, having the option to add new tracks for the music player would enhance the experience, but currently, it feels lacking.”
    • “The music really helps sell the drama of some of the trickier moments in the mission, but overall, it doesn't leave a lasting impression.”
  • story
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story aspect of the experience is centered around a 27-minute film that highlights NASA's early Apollo missions, utilizing historic photos, videos, and audio, complemented by engaging 3D infographics and dramatic music. While the core narrative focuses on the moon's discovery, the platform has expanded to include various 3D short films about space, enhancing its storytelling scope.

    • “It uses lots of great 3D infographics to explain the basics, and the music really helps sell the drama of some of the trickier moments in the mission.”
    • “But the experience's core is a 27-minute film, which tells you the story of the moon's discovery in the most interesting way.”
    • “But the experience's core is a 27-minute film, which tells the story of the moon's discovery in the most interesting way.”
    • “The full movie is 25 minutes and covers the highlights of NASA's early Apollo missions with lots of historic photos, videos, and audio.”
    • “Upd: now Apollo VR Planetarium is a platform for various 3D short films about space, not only the Apollo story.”
  • graphics
    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are generally described as average, with some users appreciating the environmental visuals and excellent video quality, while others note a lack of depth compared to better VR experiences. The use of 3D infographics is highlighted as a positive aspect, although expectations for more immersive content based on the trailer were not fully met. The addition of a laser show is seen as a fun element for those familiar with such experiences.

    • “Visuals look fine for the environment; video visuals are excellent. The laser show is silly but a nice touch for anyone who has enjoyed one in real life.”
    • “It uses lots of great 3D infographics to explain the basics, and the music really helps sell the drama of some of the trickier moments in the mission.”
    • “The full purchase is worth the £4, but there's not as much 3D content (like in the trailer) as I expected; a lot of it was infographics.”
    • “The full purchase is worth the £4, but there's not as much of the 3D content (like in the trailer) as I expected; a lot of it was infographics.”

  • gameplay
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay has been criticized for lacking any engaging mechanics or loops, leading to a negative reception from users.

    • “There's no game loops here, no gameplay, so this gets a thumbs down.”
    • “The mechanics feel clunky and unresponsive, making it frustrating to play.”
    • “The lack of variety in gameplay leads to a monotonous experience.”
  • monetization
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
