At the end of the day, Astro Bot is just an ordinary 3D platformer with tight controls and great graphics. However, when you add in the VR aspect to the game it becomes a lot more creative.What's interesting about Astro Bot is that you're just as much of a character in the game as you are with Astro Bot. Granted, you still control Astro Bot using your DualShock 4 like any other third person platformer, but occasionally you're given special tools when you have to use the DualShock 4's gyroscope to employ a flashlight, water cannon, or grappling hook to help Astro Bot out. Sometimes you have to literally use your head to break through a wall or to peak around a corner since there's no camera control in the game.Game takes about ten hours to complete or so if ... MoreAt the end of the day, Astro Bot is just an ordinary 3D platformer with tight controls and great graphics.

Could be less if you're quick at finding the bots since the game overall isn't too tough.

I've had this game 2 weeks and the PSVR for about a year and this is already my second favorite PSVR game after Skyrim. I'll show my age and say it's like Super Mario 64 but like 1,000 times better and you're IN THE GAME! If you've played the VR Playroom it's an expansion of the Robot Rescue game but much, much bigger. It's a bit repetitive as I find myself playing the same levels over and over trying to find all of the robots and chameleons but so far it's not getting old for me.The game is challenging but not so hard if your goal is to progress through the story without collecting everything there is to collect. The boss battles are amazing but not incredibly difficult. I still have to do the 5th world and a final boss battle, but so far I've collected all ... MoreI've had this game 2 weeks and the PSVR for about a year and this is already my second favorite PSVR game after Skyrim.

I should be able to finish the game with all trophies. Trophies are all hidden but you can find a list online.With all of the survival-horror games that I've been playing recently, this was a refreshing change of pace. The only downside that I see so far is that I'll probably beat it in less than 3 weeks, and with all of the repetition of doing the levels multiple times I'll probably put this away when I finish it and not play it again for quite a while. Realistically you should be able to finish the game with all accomplishments in 20 hours or so, maybe even less. Still worth the current price tag of $40, in my opinion. A great way to introduce people to VR that haven't experienced it yet. My first experience after setting up my PSVR was playing VR Playroom and Astro Bot Rescue Mission already gives me a sense of nostalgia

The main character is adorable. The way he waves at you as he passes by or does the floss dance in victory will have you falling in love right away.The VR element of the game reminds you that you are one of the main characters and are physically taking part in this whimsically colorful world (instead of merely being an outsider on the couch with a controller).The skill level ramps up quite evenly. The first levels let you acclimate to the world and the controls. The later levels become challenging and heartbreaking as you feel the responsibility of your pal plummeting to his (only temporary) doom.Sometimes I find myself stopping for a moment to take in the well detailed and often comical surroundings. I love platformers and this is the most enjoyable one I’ve ... MoreThe main character is adorable.

Aside from being the great platformer that it is, ASTRO BOT Rescue Mission is great escapist fair and (I cannot emphasize this enough) a _must-own_ for PSVR.If PSVR launched with ABRM, then we may have been talking about it in similar context as the Wii in 2006.ABRM maximizes, packages and stylizes the limits of the PSVR with a healthy dose of whimsy. The experience is similar to a host of Disney dark rides, e.g. Peter Pan's Flight, Pinocchio's Daring Journey, and even Haunted Mansion.To say this is heir apparent to games like Super Mario 64 would be putting things mildly.I am late to picking up PSVR, but, so far, this is the only game for a borderline "VR-Luddite" worth having.
While many games look pretty cool in VR, many don't hold up as games you'd want to KEEP playing. Astro Bot Rescue Mission is a game that couldn't exist without VR, and hides it's awesomeness behind a ridiculous name that made me pass it by several times, until a review convinced me to give it a go. I'm SO GLAD I DID! It's intensely charming, easy to play (but difficult to 100%), and is delightful for young and old alike. The game is so dang clever about how you use the VR, use your controller with it's motion-sensing, and how you use the VR to look around the world in FULL 3D. In short, it's a blast to play and I loved every new level with it's new creative ideas that wowed me over and over.Just be warned...you'll look silly looking around the room and reaching ... MoreWhile many games look pretty cool in VR, many don't hold up as games you'd want to KEEP playing.

Wonderful game, that is well crafted and whimsical. I was grinning ear to ear each step of the way. While a shorter game 4-6hrs main play through it well worth the asking price. You will easily double that playtime if you do the additional challenge levels and content. Lots to do.It's a game that must be experienced, since describing it or watching previews on flat screens doesn't do it justice. Most VR games are like that, but this one especially so. After God of War, and Spiderman I would easily put this among them for game of the year contender. It does so much with the medium. It's rare for me when a game gets better each level you progress. Just when you think they could not possibly top themselves... they do.There is a demo now, so try before you buy if ... MoreWonderful game, that is well crafted and whimsical.

As noted in some of the more professional gaming news websites and videos, as well as some less-than professional editorials, this video game is the best way for one to be introduced to the world of virtual reality. There's no motion sickness and no need to move one's body in order to play, though there are times when the controller's rotation becomes inaccurate over time and does tend to ruin the immersion of the game.Additionally, while the avatar may move about the game level, the POV character is rather difficult to move backwards when one misses a particular item or objective, though there is some replay value in going again. Speaking of, there are some smaller quests where one is able to build up their own collection of Astro Bots to interact and relive some ... MoreAs noted in some of the more professional gaming news websites and videos, as well as some less-than professional editorials, this video game is the best way for one to be introduced to the world of virtual reality.

Speaking of, there are some smaller quests where one is able to build up their own collection of Astro Bots to interact and relive some of the levels without actually fully playing them. However, trying to get more coins to acquire said pieces are rather monotonous and grinding if one isn't moving forward in the campaign.All and all, a worthy single-player experience worth sharing with others.
Astro Bot is an absolute Master Class study of fun and creative level design in a VR space. I'm not sure it's possible to play this game with out smiling. It's hands down must play and must own!Astro Bot is an awesome game that continually wowed and surprised me. With each level I played, I thought I had discovered my new favorite level. It just keept getting better all the way to its fun and creative conclusion.There are many good games now that make PSVR worth the investment, but this game by itself makes it worth the purchase. It's a true system seller and more than worthy of all the good reviews it's gotten.For those of you old enough to remember the feelings of pure fun and joy you had the first time you played Mario 64 in the 90's, be prepared to have ... MoreAstro Bot is an absolute Master Class study of fun and creative level design in a VR space.

This is a game for people that love games and will convert all that try it into believers of 3rd person platformers in VR!
I was enthralled, and thoroughly entertained by this game from start, to finish. I haven't had this blown away by a platformer since playing Super Mario 64 for the first time in the 90s. This takes 3D platforming to a new level using modern VR tech, with you as the camera, and headbasher of obstacles, coupled with a stellar level of polish.The visuals are superb amongts PSVR titles, controls are flawless, and there is a large variety in levels. Difficulty curve is well balanced, providing an entertaining, and occasionally challenging experience. It took me around 6 hours to get through the campaign while hunting down as many collectibles as I could along the way. Many more hours were spent finding the remainder.If you've got a PSVR, or are on the fence about ... MoreI was enthralled, and thoroughly entertained by this game from start, to finish.

I sincerely hope we will see sequels in the future.
I got this game for a really good deal on the Days of Play sale, coupled with my lingering (and soon expiring!) Gamers Club Unlocked membership. I knew it always had great reviews, but an overall short playtime. So, I told myself I wouldn't pay full price for this, but would get if I got it on a good sale price.Wow, I really stood myself up. Guys, if a "short" playtime (number of hours to beat) is throwing you off from getting this - even at full price - please don't let it! The experience well more than makes up for this AND there are some challenge levels you get by finding the hidden Chameleons throughout the various regular levels that really add onto the gameplay experience and add even more time to the game.Don't make the same mistake I did.
