When Project Hail Mary: Journey Among the Stars was announced in April, I was pretty stoked.
I own a signed copy of The Martian, and I’d breezed through the Project Hail Mary novel in just a few days. I love science fiction, and Andy Weir’s brand of irreverent and easy-to-read prose makes his novels (and their film adaptations) entertaining, fun, and surprisingly emotionally affecting.
It’s disappointing then, that Project Hail Mary: Journey Among the Stars, an immersive mixed reality experience that tells a new tie-in story in Ryland Grace and Rocky’s planet-saving journey, is boring, janky, and kind of pointless.
The Facts
What is it?: A mixed reality experience that tells a new chapter in the story of Andy Weir’s Project Hail Mary.
