Narratively, this one is classy: it's another take on the main theme of Psychonauts, that being the exploration of people as products of their past mental scars. You take a brief look inside the head of the most underutilized villain from the first game, and on the way there witness some neat character interactions, get exposed to more lore dumps and more jokes that generally land okay. It's a nice little bridge between the first and second game, I'm quite satisfied here.

Gameplay-wise this is nothing special: it's an early VR game where you interact with environments and solve puzzles. While Psychonauts psychic powers do fit VR quite nicely, the puzzles just aren't that good and can be usually reduced to exhaustion of things to interact with in the present room. RoR also lacks the physicality of VR games since you can only interact with things pointed directly at your sight, and, well this is probably the main appeal of the medium. Can confirm that you aren't missing out on a great experience if you just watch it on youtube.

It made even more excited for Psychonauts 2 though.
