Visually stunning graphics and animation that capture the essence of the show.
Fun and engaging for fans of Voltron, providing an immersive experience with familiar characters and humor.
Simple gameplay mechanics make it accessible for younger audiences and those new to VR.

Extremely short playtime, averaging around an hour, leading to a lack of replay value.
Gameplay is overly simplistic with minimal challenge, making it feel more like an interactive movie than a game.
Players do not get to control Voltron, which is a major disappointment for fans expecting more interactivity.

The story in "Voltron VR Chronicles" is generally viewed as basic and generic, lacking depth and replayability, with many reviewers noting it feels more like a digital story than a traditional game. While the interactive elements and voice acting are praised, the narrative is considered bland compared to the original series, and it ends on a cliffhanger, leaving players wanting more. Overall, it may appeal to younger audiences but falls short for those seeking a rich, engaging storyline.
- “So yeah, enjoyable, wish for more, and possible different stories from each pilot.”
- “I like the storytelling method employed here.”
- “Same great quality as the Netflix series, only there's even some interactive parts of the story.”
- “The story of this interactive story is pretty bland compared to an actual episode.”
- “There isn't anything about the story that stands out.”
- “The story is incredibly generic with the only unique part being a mysterious alien device that infects the lions and castle.”

The gameplay has been criticized for being simplistic and lacking depth, primarily consisting of watching cutscenes, solving easy puzzles, and basic flying mechanics. Many players found the controls to be finicky and the instructions unclear, leading to confusion during gameplay. Overall, while the experience is visually appealing and shows potential, it is hampered by its short length and limited replayability.
- “You will only get about an hour of gameplay, but it is so well done and it provides an insight of what animated series could become!”
- “The only gameplay other than puzzles are these segments where you 'pilot' the blue lion.”
- “The flight mechanic is also somehow both boring and confusing at the same time.”
- “Gameplay consists mainly of watching cutscenes, solving simplistic puzzles, and simple flying and shooting mechanics.”
- “In short, DreamWorks Voltron VR Chronicles is a decent experience that you can clearly tell a lot of love was put into by the creators of the show; it is held back by its length, price tag, linear story, mostly uninspiring gameplay, and lack of replayability.”

The graphics in the game are widely praised for their beautiful anime style and strong visual presentation, closely resembling the original show. While some users note that the cel-shading lacks polish compared to higher-end products, the overall animation and visuals are considered the standout features, particularly in VR. Many reviewers agree that the graphics effectively capture the essence of the show, enhancing the immersive experience.
- “The overall presentation is fantastic - music, voice acting, graphics, and animation are all on par with the show.”
- “A lot of people are saying that the graphics and animations were the best part of the game.”

The game suffers from a significant lack of replayability, with most players noting that it can be completed in under an hour and offers little incentive to revisit, aside from a couple of achievements. The linear story and uninspiring gameplay further diminish its replay value, leaving players feeling that the experience is too short and lacking in content. Suggestions for improvement include adding procedurally generated elements to enhance replayability.
- “The easiest way to implement replayability, I think, would be to have a procedurally generated version of the on-rails segments. Dodging asteroids and shooting enemy ships to get a high score could carry a game on its own.”
- “Perhaps a bit steep for the amount of actual content/playtime you get, particularly as there's not much replay value.”
- “The only replay value is getting two more achievements, but that is not worth it.”
- “The biggest letdown in this experience was the length; it takes less than an hour to fully complete and has no extras or real replayability value. You can just start over and experience it from the beginning again.”
- “In short, DreamWorks Voltron VR Chronicles (although it should probably just be Chronicle since it's a single short adventure) is a decent experience that you can clearly tell a lot of love was put into by the creators of the show; it is held back by its length, price tag, linear story, mostly uninspiring gameplay, and lack of replayability.”

- “No music/soundtrack”
