Rick and Morty: Virtual Rick-ality Offers a Deep Dive in the Show
For those who enjoy the off-the-wall, sometimes goofily mirthful and sometimes deeply disturbing humor of the Adult Swim series 'Rick and Morty,' 'Rick and Morty: Virtual Rick-ality' promises to be the perfect VR experience. The game takes users through a narrative created by the series' mastermind, Justin Roiland, and it includes many of the show's main characters (like Rick, Morty, Summer, and others.)
Though Rick and Morty: Virtual Rick-ality is the first VR game to carry the series' name and characters, it isn't the first foray into the burgeoning medium for Roiland. He was recently involved in another strange and horrific cum hilarious experience entitled 'Accounting,' which, despite its tepid name, featured the graphics and dialogue that one might expect from the mind of Roiland.
