Description: Irrational Exuberance is an experiment to probe the possibilities of full room-scale VR and the HTC Vive, unfolding organically as you discover and engage with deep space phenomena. Prologue is the first taste of the galactic fantasy, delivering you to a lonely asteroid in deep space, underneath comets and giant stars. Irrational Exuberance has been an audience favourite at Sundance and the Kaleidoscope tour and praised as a defining VR experience by the media for its use of space, sense and setting.

Review: While Irrational Exuberance: Prologue only offers a short interactive VR experience it is one that I enjoyed playing. There is no game as such, more an interesting concept of a game that might one day become a reality and that would be one amazing game. While there is some nausea to be found here I do think it is worth a look if you enjoy free VR experiences. I just hope one day the developers make something a lot longer and more fun.
