    Simple, yet complex puzzles, combined with a GLaDOS-like taskmaster, have you laughing and constantly wanting more.

    Tumble VR is easily one of the most comprehensive games among the PSVR's launch line-up, both in terms of longevity and mechanical depth. While not the kind of quintessential puzzle game that can stack up to this year's best (The Witness), Supermassive Games' virtual reality stack-a-thon stands tall on Sony's virtual reality machine.

    Tumble VR builds on the successful formula found in the original PlayStation Move title, with virtual reality greatly adding to the experience.

    This VR version of Tumble changes everything, thanks to the ability to see the depth, to a game world that surrounds the player completely, and the chance to turn literally around the structures.

    Solid VR puzzler with nice immersion, some control issues and a steep learning curve.

I don't think he went to the 2nd set of challenges, where you have to toss away a falling rock, while you stack stuff that can barely fit under the range of a bar that goes back and forth. So as you are stacking cylanders on their sides, and planks that are twice as long as your building square, while also trying to put the heavier stuff where it has support, while a bar keeps going back and forth, and a rock keeps falling that you have to grab and toss away....

    It's really hard to explain what Tumble in VR is like. Basically to me it's a palette cleanser. It's something you might mess with before you get ready for bed, so you can forget about how much you hated your coworkers today. I wish that in order to do a review for a game you have to have beaten half of the game. I haven't gotten that far just yet, but to me, for the $10, it's something different.

    Also the robots are incredibly snarky. "Oh this one is easy, really it's just a formality, finish it and we'll move on" or "Humans I hear need extra motivation. Here is a medal for if you do a good job. Medals are fun! Yay!" (all done in a monotone robotic voice which makes you wanna punch the thing)

    I don't know what to tell you about this game to be honest. It's not a must have, the demo is really short, all the real game takes place after the demo... There is just something indescribably satisfying about tossing away things you don't want, grabbing the piece you do want, putting it in carefully, and then moving on. They even have a sarcastic line about a dramatic increase in the learning curve, as they have you stack blocks on a tilted base...

    I can only imagine what the higher levels are like. If anyone is complaining about the simplicity of the puzzles they probably haven't made it to the 3rd level of puzzles.1    … Full Review »

А местный робот отдаёт Гледос из портал, но с целью построить самую высокую башню, как пример... и в самых необычных условиях и на время. Необычно просто и увлекательно сложно. Вы ходите вокруг центра комнаты и собираете конструктор. Что ещё может быть круче для релакса чем идеальная головоломка?… Full Review »
