DreamWorks Voltron VR Chronicles is an enjoyable interactive VR experience set in the universe of the Netflix series. The voice actors and animation are the best part of the game but it falls rather flat in terms of gameplay, plot and length. The story is incredibly generic with the only unique part being a mysterious alien device that infects the lions and castle. The only point of this however is to add a series of minigames and it is ultimately pretty pointless. Flying the blue lion is also not a very enjoyable experience; it's like playing a very boring rail shooter with no real challenge; it gives you no real freedom which is a shame as I was hoping for some epic space battles like in the show. The only really enjoyable part of the game comes at the end; in which there is a rather fun but short boss fight that gives you strafing controls for the lion, making it a lot more engaging than the rest of the game. The biggest letdown in this experience was the length, it takes less tha...

PROS: -The visuals, while slighly unimpressive in screenshots, really capture the look and feel of the show when you are standing in the middle of it. -The ANIMATION! For a tie-in low budget game, the animation was particularly impressive. The character's movements and facial expressions were all very well done and a ton of fun to watch. -Being in the cockpit of the blue lion is just awesome. -The game is fully voice acted by the cast of the show. They do a great job as usual. CONS: -It is very short, just barely an hour long from start to finish. -The gameplay is just too easy. I was playing very sloppily and I still made it through without encountering a failstate -Flying the lion is reistricted to a predetermined path with limited movement. Some sort of free flying mode is sorely missed oppourtunity. -The scaling in the cutscenes with the characters was really inconsistant. The villain's height seemed to fluctuate with each cutscene, and Allura and Coran looked tiny. It really ...
You don't get to play as Voltron
Video of gameplay: https://youtu.be/i1jbDxjYD7A Let me start off with saying the graphics in this game are amazing. I like that the characters are cartoons but the environment is not cartoony. The puzzles are fun, they aren't too easy nor too difficult. It's basically an episode of Voltron with the interactions being puzzles in between cinematics. I've never watched the new Voltron show, but I did watch the original Voltron when I was a kid. This game is definitely worth buying.

I got this for 50% off and for that price it is worth it. I'm sure I'll be loading this up for people new to VR often.
User Olipie is very succinct as to why this game is disapointing and not recommendable, I couldn't really add anything more useful and I recommend anyone thinking about buying this game to read that review.
As the developer mentioned in a reply to Olipie's review, this is a casual narrative cinematic experience. Having read that and Olipie's review, I feel I went into this experience with the right mindset that allowed me to enjoy it thoroughly. It lasts about 1 hour and it felt very much like an episode of a TV show (note, I have not seen the Netflix series). I found the experience to be exactly how I would want to experience TV through VR. As other reviewers have mentioned about the price, $10 is a bit on the expensive side for a single episode of a TV show, even if it is somewhat interactive, but I'm happy to spend the money if it will encourage similar future content (of any title/series) from this developer or others.
I do not write reviews.. Can never be bothered.. However, for this game I have to make an exception. If you love the netflix series - Buy this game NOW! 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 graphics were great, everything looked almost exactly like the show only with a few slight differences. Most of the puzzles and battles were fairly easy. The only thing that I wish was different was the length of the gameplay. The game only lasted about an hour to an hour and a half. Taht being said, It was very fun and worth the 15 bucks
