About the Game

Border Bots VR is a puzzle simulation set on a future earth where AI is in control. As a human border agent, you begin a new role as a booth operator at an AI travel border. Interact and check over a variety of robots as they try to get through security. Some of their credentials might not be up to scratch, it's up to you to make sure they get the stamp of approval.

Step into the booth as a border control agent and swiftly process robots by analysing their documents for discrepancies, oddities, undeclared modifications and contraband!

Earn credits through challenging gameplay to purchase booth upgrades to keep yourself ahead of the competition. You can also spend your credits on apartment customisations and bring your space to life!

Meet and interact with a variety of quirky robots at the booth and in your apartment! Come face-to-face with sentient appliances as you discover more about their newfound consciousness and colourful personalities.

Use a variety of tactile gadgets in VR to examine robots at the booth. You'll need different tools for inspection including a 3D printer, Contraband Detector, Stun Gun, Barcode Scanner and much more.
