Online Access Broken for a long time. Cannot access any online sharing stages in game since July. Ask the dev team But never get the reply when it will be fixed.
Has great promise but some frustrations. Hi... just bought the game based on reviews and its pretty awesome so far. However, I do find it a bit cumbersome to have to move blocks with the tool as it is far more intuative to simply use my hands! May i suggest that you allow normal hand pick up and moving wherever possilble and limit the use of tools. ie to delete simply throw away etc. IMO we REAALY to be able to use TWO hands to manipulate stuff. Allow the tool pallet to be positioned and float in the air to free up a hand. Items should be able to be taken out and place back into the tool pallet. Otherwise great game :)
This game is amazing. Well worth the price. If you’re thinking about buying the game, I would say buy it. Creating contraptions is fun and relaxing; and, finishing each of the levels in the campaign is satisfying. The sandbox is fun as you can create any contraption you like or just mess around in it. The game looks amazing and the design is intuitive. If the game cost more I would still buy it because the game is enjoyable and something you want to keep playing.
Unplayable, Broken. Exactly the same issue as gcncheung (see his review). Can`t get past the (mandatory) Tutorial. The only way to manipulate anything seems to be to touch the object with the R/H touch controller, then pull the L/H trigger and hold it as you move the object, then release the object by releasing the L/H trigger again. This doesn`t seem right at all, (and VERY UNintuitive), as the clipboard also pops up when you pull the L/H trigger. The Grips/Pliers open and shut but just clip through everything, they don`t seem to do anything. The lack of ANY coherent instructions just exacerbates matters. So like gcncheung, I`m now stuck and cannot grab the domino`s from the clipboard/inventory at all, and consequently can`t see any other part of the game. Sorry but I`ll be requesting a refund. The games totally unplayable in this state & seeing no reply to gcncheung after a full month doesn`t give me any hope that the game is going to be fixed.
No cross-buy. When almost every application supports cross-buy the few greedy developers stand out. There are many more quest owners than ripped owners and sales on the quest generally tremendously outperform rift sales. To this point, you really only hurting people who supported your application before while not hurting overall sales. Asking someone to buy a game multiple times is some Bethesda crap.
We Need More Games Like This. I love it, the graphics are pleasant, the game runs smooth, the music is calming. This is an enjoyable and relaxing experience you can play at your pace. The Puzzle mode is nicely laid out to slowly introduce you to different types of pieces and to explore the possibilities of the environment. The controls are clever. The movement and tool switching are some of the best of any VR title. As said in another review I did find it a little difficult precisely placing pieces with only one hand (especially the right considering I'm a lefty) but later found the option in settings to switch to left mode. I think one thing which could make this game even better would be to have both hands switch out tool heads (like the right one does by default) and add a 4th tool which is the "inventory" piece (the default for the left hand) that way you can freely switch between what hand holds the catalog and what hands move things around (and can even use the grabber tool in both hands for when you need to place something precisely) without having to got to settings and switch hand dominance. Would love to see the developers of this partner up with the developers of Short Circuit VR, mash them together and make the ultimate "Home alone on your day off" simulator. Great work.
Won’t work. So I downloaded the game and I can get into the main room but every time I try and load in to a game for example The tutorial it just come up with loading screen wated over 5 mins and still did not work not happy will leave another review once this has been fixed.
