Description: LyokoVR is a VR fanmade game return to the Code Lyoko animated series. The story continues after the final episode of season 4 with the comeback of X.A.N.A. After the death of Franz Hopper, Jeremie creates a program to bring him back. In order to run the program, the warriors have to come back to the virtual world and get the data from towers that Jeremie required.

Review: I have to be honest, I really don’t want to hate ‘LyokoVR’ because it is clearly someones first attempt at a game and they have put hard work into making it. But sadly the game is just too raw for its own good. For a start, motion controllers are not really supported and you could easily have played this on an Oculus Go, or Gear VR! But there are seeds here for a good little game. If there was more storyline, more control of my own movement it would be OK, but it really should have been free because any fee can easily seem unjustified. Kudos goes to the developer for trying, but I simply can’t recommend this to others.
