Review: While you can play with the gamepad, this game is best played with the move controllers for that added level of realism. Using them to literally touch the panels on the Captain’s chair or the helms stations panels. While not the most stunning graphically, the sense of immersion you get is so deep that I would say that this single game will sell PSVR’s to every Trekkie out there and turn a lot of new people into them.
While the single-player is a fairly short experience it is the multiplayer online mode that really makes this game what it is. The problem is that it often relies on the whole team working together, not just one person. But if one person is a complete noob that will often end in disaster. Tempers soon get flared and often a mission will end in a bad-tempered mood. This is one of the most amazing social VR experience there is, but it often shows how unforgiving some of us humans can be.
