About This Game

NEW HALLOWEEN UPDATE: We have released a free update containing a special Halloween version of our experience with all new music. For more details, please see our Recent Update on the release!

Welcome to the Impossible Travel Agency

Travel to a distant world pulsing with life in this beautiful VR experience set to music. As the sun sets and the twin moons rise, luminescent flowers shine while sleek birds glowing with mystical patterns weave ever-changing shapes across the sky. And then, minute by minute, you realize that something miraculous is unfolding before you. All of it builds to a glorious and mysterious climax -- and you can only witness all of this thanks to the Impossible Travel Agency, a transporting VR experience for anyone who loves music, beauty, and dreams.

This is a narrative experience in VR lasting six minutes. Once you've taken the trip, you can customize it by using your own music and setting the duration to match your favorite album or playlist. The environment will react to your music and the story will adjust to your new duration for a transporting experience with the songs you love.

ITA supports the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive headsets. It also supports the use of tracked motion controllers for both VR platforms but controller usage is optional. You may sit, stand, walk around, or just lie on the floor and look up at the stars.

Available for Arcades on SpringboardVR

Is it long? No. Is it full of content? No. But is it beautiful, and etherial, and gorgeous, and when the night falls it gets even better? Yes. A few caveats, this is not a game where you will be doing much. This is an experience, think of it like a music video, and if that sounds worth the money to you, jump in. I personally love this kind of stuff, want more surreal experiences.

The total experience length of 6 minutes is fine, IF it's a pretty special 6 minutes... unfortunately the 6 minutes you're getting here is nowhere as detailed and impressive as, say, TheBlu. My observations: 1). The flying stingray monster is just a whale model, modified/crossed with the stingray model. When it's close enough, you can see that it has a whale's body/face/tail, except for the added wings. (Is the whale one of the default model from Vive SDK or something?) 2). The art direction/color choice, is pretty meh to me. Neither cool, enchanting nor elegant. 3). The events that 'unfold' within the 6 minutes are pretty meh... the only kinda cool thing happened too far away to observe or 'feel', and there's no way to see it closer. 4). Did I mention that there's only one scene and you can't seem to move at all from your initial location? Or did I miss that option.

If you've watched the trailer, you've seen everything there is to see in this game. A whaleaodactyl manta ray thing flying around, birds, flowers, water, some lights, japanese paper lanterns floating around, another whaeodactyl breaks out of a rock and shoots into space. Save your $5.00 or just give to to a radom person on the street, either way it's a better use of $5.00 than watching whaleaodactyls.

I enjoyed the experience, very relaxing, beautiful environment. However, I was hoping for something more. It builds up, but nothing very interesting happens. I would say the price is a bit steep as well, this experience is worth 3 dollars at most. As a fellow developer, I recommend lowering the price on this a bit.

There is absolutely nothing. Some music for what feels super long. It's like the blue, but more boring. I am sorry, but it is not worth the price. There is only 1 scene and you can't move. The art direction is average at best. For the price there are much better VR experience out there. I don't know, but this looks like it was throw together in one afternoon quickly. Or did I miss the way to actually travel?

This is a beautiful fantasy/sci-fi VR experience with visuals that are subtly synced to a symphonic score. I've heard several people compare the setting to Avatar's Pandora, but the world here has its own palette and its own mysteries. I hear there is some interactivity if you have motion tracking controllers, but I am a Rift user, and currently only have Xbox controllers, so I can't speak to that aspect of the product. It has been enough for me to just be able to look around (you'll probably want to be standing for this one) and let things play out. The default mode of this program is to play an almost 6-minute-long scene to the included score, but you can adjust it to disable the built-in music and sync some of the visual effects to whatever music is playing on your computer's default audio device. (I tried this with some Alan Walker YouTube videos playing in a browser window on the desktop and this worked out really well.) If you're the first person in your family or circle of fri...

Nice little experience similar in concept to The Blu, and also in a similar price bracket (considering this is just one scenario whereas The Blu has three). Where The Blu offers a realistic underwater setting, this one's more of a fantasy/sci-fi one high up in the air. The classical music can be replaced by one's own and the length of the experience adjusted accordingly. Yes, it's only about 6 minutes of content, but I for one am not regretting the purchase. Here's hoping that travel agency will get additional destinations down the road!

Short, sweet, supported for the potential that companies like this deliver for bigger better experienced going forward. Child like, 6 mins, pretty flowers and lights with a flying thing. For two bottles of coke it worth it.

This should appeal to people who like the theatre. I enjoyed it and the price is spot on.
