✦ AI summary

The Journey is a VR game with an intriguing concept of exploring the human body from inside a ship, but players consistently report it suffers from poorly designed controls that are unintuitive and disorienting, combined with technical issues like low-resolution textures, buggy mechanics, and confusing navigation that make the experience frustrating rather than engaging.

Can't really say anything positive except for maybe the current low price of 0,99 EUR? But even then, I feel like this is just a waste of time. The in-game menu is so bad, low-res textures of body, terrible controls when flying the ship, weird industrial textures in ship, lousy text-to-speech, annoying sounds, .... It would take ages to correct all this.

[h1] Experienced on the Oculus Rift with Touch Controllers [/h1] I actually spent .99 cents USD on this a while back on July 2017. I finally got around to playing this. Was it worth it? Nope, I would have been better never playing this game and leaving it in my backlog. I would have been better never having spent these .99 cents. C'est la vie. This is a great concept game, with very bad execution. As many people mention in the reviews, the controls are horrible and indeed they are. I questioned my sanity several times. Where am I going? Is my ship moving? Should I keep going? What am I doing? The answer to all those questions is losing my sanity. This may be an educational game about the human body, but it's really an educational game on patience. How much are you willing to put up with to learn some tidbits about the human body. It may very well be a cleverly disguised psychological experiment. How far will the rat go to get this promise of a cheese in the face of many reasons to quit? A true test of the Sunken Costs Fallacy. [i]You come in through the mouth and hopefully leave in the butt hole if you're lucky. And I saw things, things that shouldn't be seen. Yes, turds. Talk a…

I would not recommend this with its current control method. The controls feel alien and backwards, they are not as intuitive as ones i'm used to in other VR games. The contols are so bad I got stuck in the back of the throat within the first 10 mins. I will be seeking a refund.

Horribly disorienting. In the body there is no light, as if piloting it with the wacky controls wasn't hard enough. Really great concept though.

Haven't gotten too far in but great concept so far. I think it brings a "drive" to learn about the human body and to provide an interesting challenge to ship maneuver. The controls could be improved and looks like the triggering, but other then that. Looking forward to trying some more.
