Human: Fall Flat VR takes the already endearingly clumsy physics-based platformer and catapults it into the realm of virtual reality, resulting in a hilarious, frustrating, and ultimately rewarding experience. The game’s unique blend of slapstick comedy and challenging puzzles is perfectly suited for VR, offering a level of immersion and interaction that elevates the original experience.
A World of Wonky Physics
The core gameplay loop of Human: Fall Flat remains intact in its VR iteration. Players control a ragdoll-like character through a series of increasingly complex levels, navigating obstacles, solving puzzles, and overcoming the game’s often unpredictable physics. The VR adaptation adds a new layer of physicality to these interactions. Every grab, push, and climb feels tangible, making each success and failure more impactful.
A Social Experience Like No Other
One of the greatest strengths of Human: Fall Flat is its multiplayer mode, and the VR version takes this to new heights. Collaborating with friends to solve puzzles and overcome challenges in VR is a truly unique and hilarious experience. The shared laughter and frustration as you fumble through levels together create unforgettable memories.
A Few Stumbles Along the Way
While Human: Fall Flat VR is a fantastic experience, it’s not without its flaws. The game can be quite demanding on VR hardware, and performance issues can sometimes detract from the experience. Additionally, the controls, while intuitive, can be somewhat finicky, leading to moments of frustration.
A Must-Play for VR Enthusiasts
Despite these minor shortcomings, Human: Fall Flat VR is a must-play for anyone looking for a fun and chaotic VR experience. The game’s charming art style, humorous physics, and engaging multiplayer make it a standout title in the VR library. Whether you’re a fan of the original game or new to the series, Human: Fall Flat VR is a delightful and unforgettable adventure.
