Nov 17, 2022What the Bat will certainly appeal to fans of its golf predecessor. Absurd humor of the tasks works equally well in VR, while variety and brevity of challenges make you lose yourself in the cartoon world, unable to stop completing level after level. It's just a shame there's not much to come back to once the adventure is over.

Dec 11, 2022What the Bat is fun if you just want to kill half an hour, and its humour and variety make it colourful and unpredictable every time. [Meta Quest 2]

Nov 28, 2022Minor warts and all, What The Bat? is a deceptively complex game that begs to be shown to friends and family members who might be interested — or even skeptical — about the medium. It’s a great game to cast to a smart TV and pass the headset around to a room full of people. My problems with What The Bat?’s rare, frustratingly obscured puzzles are so microscopic compared to the joy this game brought me that I’d be kicking myself if I didn’t recommend it. Having played baseball for a solid third of my life, I can confidently say that I had far more fun with What The Bat? than I ever did with the real deal. If Triband keeps releasing games with this cadence, its next might be a contender for best of all time. [Recommended]
