Space Hunters

Faire: Rome

Maker: Eugenio Costa

 

To this day, children are increasingly inclined to play in the virtual world.

The commander will have to hide the three aliens, located in the seeker's controller, and then click the arrows on his controller, to give directions to the seeker. Once the directions are sent, they will be immediately received by the seeker, who will follow the arrows to find the aliens and collect them in his controller.
