Critic Reviews for Tumble VR
At the end of the day, we’re mostly just stacking blocks in Tumble VR, and that’s rarely going to be exciting. Even when it challenged me with head-scratching feats of structural engineering it bored me with the mundanity of its theme. Adding onto that some of the PlayStation VR’s inherent limitations with tracking, and it was as often frustrating as rewarding.
Tumble VR improves upon the original Tumble with all manner of new puzzles and a cute versus mode.
Tumble VR is a good example of the tactile feedback a combination of motion controls and virtual reality can bring, and importantly, it's something people of all ages and skill levels can enjoy, and understand.
It is a pity that control sometimes is more headacher than their own puzzles, because the game is varied, fun and cheap.

In fact, that's my biggest issue with the game: it is, at best, just fine. There isn't a slick presentation or wildly compelling puzzle designs to pick up the slack and keep you hooked. I can appreciate that Supermassive has figured out the fundamentals with Tumble VR and come in at such a budget-friendly price, but I also can't deny the times when I grew bored of playing. Don't rush through this one.
Tumble VR builds on the successful formula found in the original PlayStation Move title, with virtual reality greatly adding to the experience. It may not be the loudest or prettiest VR title, nor the game that blows your socks off with explosion-laden trailers and exciting moments, but it is one of the most natural and immersive game I have played in VR so far. Tumble VR and its simple block stacking seem like the least exciting of all the PSVR launch titles, yet it’s turned out to be one of the best. Recommended.
Not the most attention grabbing of the PSVR launch titles, but a competent puzzler, that offers a more mellow VR experience.
A clever puzzle game that make great use of the VR effect. But the control scheme has something broken and its appeal is limited.
