What players say

Players describe this as a very short VR experience, around 15 minutes, that feels more like a tech demo or interactive show than a full game. While fans of the Doctor Who series appreciate the charming art style and authentic portrayal of the Thirteenth Doctor, many wish it were longer and had more gameplay.
