While this game is probably more simple in multiplayer mode, I’ve played it in single player. That probably makes it more challenging, but the AI companion pulls its weight thankfully.
The game looks a little daunting in terms of managing the numerous options at hand such as the five different weapons, the shield, the thruster and the map. It feels similar to a game like Overcooked where paying attention at what is going on at every moment is important and strategizing the needs based on what is around you.
Adding in the upgrade mechanic was also a nice touch allowing for a number of ways to make things interesting. Gems can be applied to each device (minus the map) to allow for some really cool things. Inserting a metal gem to the thruster for instance will send out little spike mines behind you, while adding it to a weapon generates a mace like object to be swung at enemies. Mixing and matching leads to some interesting combinations, but it all comes down to what you find in the presents scattered around each level or after each level.
While the game takes place in space, there are a number of obstacles to overcome from patches of water that slows whatever comes in contact with it (or blocks projectiles) or gusty ice winds that make traversing a tad more punishing. The enemies make it more troublesome not only because of the attacks but by sheer numbers. You may be avoiding a school of piranha like creatures on one side of the ship, trying to prevent a flying saucer from laying mines out on another, or a giant insectoid spewing missiles on an undefended area. These wide array of things make the few instances to catch your breath worthwhile.
It’s also hard deny the cuteness factor of the game. From the color palette to the innocent cry of the animals you are tasked to rescue, Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime is adorable all around. Even the creature and boss designs are crafted well enough to look great while still being an imposing threat.
I am hard pressed to say anything negative about Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime. I could see things being improved upon (such as having special abilities for each character), but even speaking about how the game is, I have had a blast playing it. If you enjoy couch co-op or just a fun single player experience, this is one to try out!

Don’t waste your time. While the Spider-Man VR Experience is free, it’s also only about 5 or 10 minutes as you shoot some bottles, pull some wood planks down, and cause a web explosion on group of objects using your shooters. After that you shoot The Vultures’ wings a few times, stop a crane from falling, and credits. Not fun or engaging at all.
Justice League VR is a minigame compilation that is bad. For instance, as the Flash, you run down a subway total and tilt your head to run along walls to avoid objects. Wonder Woman has you using a sword and shield to stop parademons. Superman flies after parademons using his heat vision to fry them. Those are some examples of what you do. None work great, and an overly boring experience.
