GameGrin
By Andrew DuncanEnter a world where crime doesn't happen, and investigate murder, theft, and apocalypse. Also lots of talking.
GamingTrend
By David FlynnTaken as a whole, Dyschronia: Chronos Alternate isn't the most polished game out there. The writing and voice acting are sub-par, but the overall story and puzzles are well worth wading through the flaws to see to the conclusion. This is a great finale to a work of passion, and something every VR owner should at least check out.
GamingTrend
By David FlynnDyschronia: Chronos Alternate Episode 2 lets you delve even further into this sci-fi murder mystery, with a gripping if poorly written narrative that provides more thrilling twists and turns. While the middle of this middle chapter can be slow and unsatisfying, this is still an incredibly fun plot to piece together in your head.
oprainfall
By Leah McDonaldDyschronia: Chronos Alternate is available on the Meta Quest 2 and PlayStation VR2, with an expected Nintendo Switch version coming later this year. Buying Episode 1 and 2 will cost around $35 USD for Meta Quest 2 and $40 for PSVR2, and you can’t go wrong with either. If you’re a fan of VR games, this is a must buy.

By Krystle LimAmidst some of my suffering, I did enjoy the story and the game. The game has nice VR interaction, with good motion sickness/accessibility options (minus the subtitles). It’s a game that is played while seated, with very minimal movements required. It is heavy in dialogue since it is a sci-fi detective game which may not be for everyone.
