CRANGA!: Harbor Frenzy

So if you like Jenga you'll probably like this game. The only real question for someone interested in this game, is whether the price point is justified. It's a tough call for me, especially at normal pricing, because although I did like the game and I enjoyed all the different levels. In the end, it's just Jenga. Actualy, this game is two different games. One is motion controller jenga with VR immersion. The other is a VR game where your motion controller acts like a gamepad and you're controlling a crane to push the blocks away (and it's just not as immersive). The first mode, you are using your motion controllers as your hands to push the blocks / containers. The odd part is that, even here, there's a little bit of a break from immersion. You're not really using your 'VR hands.' You're using your motion controllers as a mouse dot pointer which is where you can push blocks. I would have preferred to be able to use our hands as we would in real life, even if that meant the scales would be off. Just give us giant, slightly visible, transparent VR hands. Each stage has it's own unique twist. Each stage changes each time you play it. So no two games will ever pla…

Super addictive! It has that solitaire feel where you can trap yourself with poor choices, but when it all goes right and you clear the entire tower. it feels great! I'm using the hand mode on vive controllers and the physics are perfect!

This is an amazing game, I could not stop playing it, it's one of those games where you keep telling yourself this is my last go and when it ends you quickly start it again. 10/10

Cranes stack cargo high Cargo towers start to sway Keep the tower safe

The good part is, you can cheat on hand mode!

I bought this game on a whim when I first bought the original Vive. Since then between friends hanging out and enjoying VR, partying under influence, workout cooldowns and just generally enjoying VR I've accumulated 27+ hours and I don't see any signs I'll get tired of it. The physics feel smooth and the simplicity makes it easy to enjoy with people who don't necessarily enjoy videogames or VR stuff.
