Beautiful storybook terrarium title Luna coming to PS VR

More On: Luna

With all of the violence and chaos that we all enjoy in our gaming worlds on a day to day basis, it is delightful to see a company committing to the creation of a game of peaceful reverie and beauty. VR is amazing tech for many reasons, but one of my favorite things about it is the ability VR has to place players in another world. I find that developers that opt to create worlds of wonder and exploration are just as successful as those that choose to drop players into a haunted mansion full of demons.

This brings us to Luna, a gorgeous-looking game being developed for PS VR by developer Funomena. It looks like the title has been around on other VR platforms for a while, but this is the first time I've come across it. From what I can tell, players are in charge of creating a miniature terrarium and populating it with plants and animals. New plants and animals can be gained by solving constellation-based puzzles in the sky. When you are satisfied with the layout you have created, you can zip down into your terrarium and watch a storybook tale unfold in the musical forest you have made.

Sold. I mean, totally sold. After playing the delightful Moss, I’m all in on tiny animals in magical worlds.

If you are one of the fortunate folks that will be attending PAX West next week, Luna will be playable at the Funomena booth from August 31st to September 1st. Swing by and try it out, then let us know how it is!
