"The Room VR: A Dark Matter is one of my favourite PSVR puzzle games of all time, offering a bunch of unique and entertaining puzzles within a beautiful and magical world. Although the length of the stages got rather short towards the end, my journey up until that point was a very memorable and enjoyable one, so the final stage didn’t alter my overall opinion, I just wished it had cranked things up and presented us with harder and longer puzzles to solve. If you’re a fan of puzzle games and own a VR headset – I can’t recommend this game enough – this title is a must-buy, it’s that simple!"

About

You play as an investigator in 1908 London following the sudden disappearance of an Egyptologist. The Room VR: A Dark Matter drops you into shadowy archives and hidden chambers where you inspect intricate mechanical puzzles and figure out a mystery tied to strange cosmic forces. Every object feels tangible in VR, rotate gears, slide panels, and peer into hidden compartments to progress. The story unfolds through cryptic notes and environmental clues rather than dialogue. This VR adaptation of the acclaimed puzzle series leans hard into its medium. The sense of scale and depth makes manipulating objects feel intuitive, with over 20 puzzles designed specifically for headset controls. Community reviews highlight its tense atmosphere and careful design, with many calling it one of the best VR puzzle experiences since 2020. Its lack of combat or time pressure lets you savor the eerie quiet of each location.

Storyline
