Description

Penrose Station is a single player, science fiction VR mystery.

It is the year 2096. You are a support technician who has been sent to make a service call at a far away research vessel. However, when you get there nobody's home and you can't contact headquarters....

Discover the nature of a crime and the perpetrator's identity. Then decide for yourself whether or not it was justified.

Penrose Station combines elements of a Shakespearean tragedy, archival audio, environmental storytelling, lightweight puzzle mechanics, and ethically complex situations into a virtual reality experience.
