### 3/5 — Amazing Customer Service

*2025-12-30*

Not only does my son  love using his VR, everyone in the family does too! So when we had a glitch with the audit on one the newest downloads, I wrote into their customer service. Fast, responsive, generous are all words I would use to describe them! Thank you for fixing our problem and giving us bonus items on the side!

### 4/5 — Pretty cool

*2025-12-29*

Really cool don’t get what the vr headset does

### 2/5 — Odyssey XR isn’t what you expect

*2025-12-29*

I got a box with the ESPN sports included, I downloaded it  and that took 30 minutes… then I went into it and it just let me LEARN THE BASICS OF A SPORT FOR 2 MINUTES. It’s really not that fun… and guess what? Even though I deleted the app and returned the product, MY PHONE’S ORIENTATION IS PERMANENTLY LOCKED IN PORTRAIT MODE!!! At least it’s not landscape, but in the app you can go back to landscape in VR mode, but it instantly goes back, now my phone is ruined. Thanks a lot.

### 1/5 — It’s a scam

*2025-12-26*

It deletes your pack and won’t let you get it back. Waste of money.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2025-12-25, version 2.1.1*

VR doesn’t focus. Garbage and returning.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2025-12-25*

This is absolutely terrible. Today is Christmas Day and I was about to try this espn mode. It is so pathetic that this is such a long wait. I have been waiting for 5 hours and am probably 10 percent of the way there. This is terrible, do not download this.

### 1/5 — Downloading Content is Broken

*2025-12-25*

I have over 10gb of storage available on my phone. When trying to download it says I don’t have enough space. Then when I retry it tells me it’s already downloading but nothing is happening. This is a scam.

### 1/5 — Your kid will be in college before content downloads

*2025-12-23, version 2.1.1*

I do not have a problem with having to download content, but downloading 1.5 GB at 1 MB per minute is pathetic. I am not trying to download on Christmas morning either.

### 1/5 — Hate

*2025-11-22, version 2.0.6*

Not working lol

### 5/5 — It’s good

*2025-02-23, version 1.0.5*

### 1/5 — 6 months later

*2026-05-27*

It won’t let me connect to buy a dinosaur pack.   The app says I’m offline, but I’m using my cell phone that is not only getting cell service but also connected to our WiFi.  Tried troubleshooting me shooting multiple ways but it’s clearly an app issue.

### 1/5 — Hi

*2026-03-23, version 2.2.1*

Dude u got to buy things FOR IT TO BE USEFUL!!!

### 1/5 — Dumb

*2026-03-10*

Don’t get the espn one all you get to do is watch videos of sports it’s dumb DO NOT BUY

### 1/5 — Can’t even get in. No support.

*2026-02-08*

Don’t waste your money. App password won’t allow paste or password managers. Went to reset it to something easy to remember (not secure) and the reset links wouldn’t send. After 3 times trying to get a link sent I got locked out. No one’s going to be bothering with that. Clearly the bare minimum was put into development.

Finally made an account on the website, went to login and got an error that my email wasn’t registered. What a joke.

### 1/5 — Waste of $$$

*2026-01-21*

Plain and simple, do not buy any of these books. There is absolutely no information on what app to download and there was no activation number.  We purchased the ESPN book.

### 1/5 — Lies

*2026-01-14*

This is a lie! It says you get to play, on the box and in the real thing you just watch a movie on the history of the sport. It was disappointing

### 1/5 — It tricks you

*2026-01-11*

It makes it seem like a game, but is actually just history about sports that everybody knows if you’ve played it before

### 1/5 — Body shaming headset

*2026-01-03*

When I wore the headset my nose didn’t fit.

### 1/5 — The app and headset suck

*2025-12-28, version 2.1.1*

I got this as a Christmas present from my grandparents, and I was very excited to try it out. But it didn’t have its own screen like a Meta Quest or something. Apparently, I had to use my phone to do it, which was fine, but I had to take my big bulky case off. And when I got the app and put it on my headset, it made my vision look wide-eyed on the screen. And even worse, the virtual reality stuff is just a stupid history lesson! So I immediately turned it off and quit. Oh yeah, and they put cartoon characters in it, so it gives you the worst of all history lessons. I feel really bad for my grandparents for wasting money on just a piece of worthless plastic and a few medals, but at least the book would be interesting for younger people, but I am 15 years old, and I have other stuff to worry about than some stupid book about sports history.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2025-12-27*

Not worth the time or energy

### 5/5 — Incredible!!

*2026-07-08*

I love the immersive VR experiences inside this app. Very cool! There is a wide variety of themes and topics to explore as well

### 5/5 — The Best!

*2026-07-02*

Love this app! Made me the cool aunt 🙌🏽 and easy to use.

### 5/5 — I’ve used this for a while now and it’s been fun with the kids

*2026-07-01*

We downloaded this app when we got our first DK Oceans VR kit. We have since unlocked the rest of the experiences and love every moment of it.

### 5/5 — absolutely peak

*2026-01-10, version 2.1.1*

app may be unpopular, but it is fun

### 5/5 — Really fun!

*2026-01-06*

My dad bought these for my kids for Christmas. They are very fun to play with and a great way for our 5 year old to ‘scuba dive’ from our living room. We had a snafu with the program and the customer service was super friendly and helpful. Thanks for making a nice product at an accessible price!

### 5/5 — Super fun

*2025-12-30*

I love all the features in this app my kids love it

### 5/5 — Excellent learning and fun

*2025-12-30, version 2.1.1*

My kids, 8 and 12, are loving these apps with their VR sets. They’re getting up close with history and learning so much. 
They’re having so much fun exploring. Highly recommend!! 

Additionally, one of our sets was missing a code and customer service was wonderful-friendly and very helpful.

### 5/5 — I LOVE this app!

*2025-12-26*

This would be a really awesome app if you want to learn about some other sports that you don’t play. My favorite thing about this app is that if you buy a box, It would come with VR headset! That way, it looks like you are in the game! I also want some more features!  You might want to add some movement, so it would actually feel like you are in a the game! Maybe a quiz? There is one more that would be very cool… You could actually play the game after you learn about it! You don’t have to though! I really recommend this to other people.

### 5/5 — A lot of fun

*2025-09-13*

Great options with a lot of fun content

### 5/5 — I love this game

*2025-03-23, version 1.1.3*

I am so happy that you guys made this game it’s so amazing thank you very much
