The puzzle and gameplay aspect of the game is pretty good though the visuals is rather lacking, which may be part of the game’s aesthetic. The gameplay is what matters most though, which is a nice defense game where you need to place certain defensive mechanism in order to prevent an enemy from reaching the end of the level. There are a lot of levels which ramps up nicely and gets you to think. There are also various tools you use like mines and cannons. Other aspects also show up such as change in gravity from time to time which changes the direction the enemy moves, so that would be needed to be factored in when strategising and placing your defense. Overall, it is a good puzzle game, though with nicer visuals, would be great.

Spirits

Spirits

Spirits incites feelings of calmness, relaxation and fun as equally as it does frustration. ~ 7/10

The beautiful glow effects and music give the game a sense of tranquility. However, you’ll find if you don’t enjoy trial & error, this sense of tranquility is quickly lost. Knowing the correct solution to a problem isn’t always good enough, as the game demands a certain amount of perfection in execution. Despite this, I found myself striving to achieve perfect scores on each stage, motivated to increase my World Rank which is a great feature of this game. The later stages being as difficult and sometimes unforgiving as they are makes completing them all the more satisfying. Overall, I’d recommend this if you enjoy a game that is visually/musically rich and you enjoy problem-solving/trial & error.

Spirits is a short name for little ghosts that pollinate plants in a magic forest.

This amazing puzzle game is in lower levels very easy to play and turned out in the last levels as quite challenging. It reminds me mostly of Lemmings. You have either these special abilities like digging through walls (bashing), blowing other spirits over gaps or blocking wind streams as a bloated spirit which you can assign to each of them. Of course then its life is lost. The aim is to bring as much as possible of them to the great magic swirl. Additional the spirits are reacting on windstreams but mostly they must be bewared of walking or floating into dangerous spikes everwhere. Dumb as lemmings …

Tin Hearts: Prologue

Tin Hearts: Prologue

2 Minute Video Review → https://youtu.be/slPuCooKGbg

Tin Hearts is a lemmings type game. Tiny toy soldiers march forward and it’s up to you to guide their path to the goal.

You don’t control the toy soldiers directly, you need to change other objects to steer them. Starting with just simple blocks to make them turn, but eventually you’ll be manipulating other toys to steer them. And there’s some creative contraptions that get involved as well.

The levels start small, but eventually you’ll need to guide the soldiers through large toy shops.

Experienced on the Oculus Rift with Touch Controllers

The most beautiful VR game I have ever played. Each puzzle room will amaze you with its idyllic charm. You almost forget about the puzzles and just want to look around and play with the different assets. Unfortunately, most of the assets are there just for decoration as you cannot interact with them (outside what the puzzle wants you to interact with to solve the puzzle).

The puzzles follow along the normal Lemming-style puzzle challenges. However, several of the mechanics are done keeping with the toy workshop theme. You can stop time, forward time or reverse time. You’ll use toy blocks to guide your toy soldiers. They will jump on toy drums, take a balloon ride over obstacles, or bounce off a book or toy train. There will be obstacles such as the Jack-in-the-box to avoid.

Very charming and enjoyable puzzle game at a very low price.

I would happily pay for more levels as DLC if that ever happens.

Waddle Home

Waddle Home

(played on the oculus rift s in a relatively small l-shaped play area)

waddle home is a short easy puzzle game about leading penguins through a tile-based island, collecting eggs and avoiding enemies to reach a final goal. there’s 40 levels, having taken me about 2 hours to beat all of them with 100% collectables and now working back through in order to get the 1000 minimum score on each level achievement.

it’s not a new concept - not by any stretch of the imagination. back to bed is pretty much the same game - replacing penguins with a dreaming person and the dogs with robots - relying on the gimmick whereby your player(s) walk straight and turn left, and enemies walk straight and turn right. the primary differences are that a) this game is in vr and b) back to bed has a deeper set of mechanics and a more challenging levelset. if you’re going into this game expecting a brand new exciting (and difficult) puzzle experience, this isn’t worth your £4. buy back to bed instead, it delivers a far better experience on that front.

Your goal is to release cute penguins onto a level, who passively move through it: they only walk forward (you don’t control them), and only turn right when they bonk on something. You look down on the entire level as though you were a kid standing over a playset (think one of those Thomas the Train tables). Because of this, the game feels smaller and involves no movement around your room. If you can only play standing up, this is the perfect VR game for you. Anyway, the penguins need to pick up eggs and then exit. To guide them, you can raise or lower blocks, thereby altering the penguins' paths. There are enemies along the way who can remove your penguins. That’s it! Highly polished game, clean design, good fun. For an entry-level VR user who is looking to do something besides the tech demos and partial experences that lack progression, this fits the bill nicely. It not a visual feast, but it’s charm factor is AAA.

Cobots

Cobots

This is a cool little game with a great artstyle! The puzzles get progressively more difficult (a good thing), and if you get stuck you can probably think of solutions from previous levels to get hints to progress further.

10/10, would fall into the void again.

Real player with 5.7 hrs in game

Interesting and cute puzzle game by setting the actions of robots.

You must consider both the order and interaction between them,

and can try different ways to collect all the chips (achievement).

If you like little game / logic action game, Cobots is a good choice.

(It takes about 4.5~5 hrs to complete all the achievements)
