House Builder VR

Building houses around the world in VR sounds awesome. Actually playing this doesn’t. Bugs, broken VR functionality and an unfinished feel make it very hard to recommend.

My God... At first, I thought the game was okay and sometimes even fun. I've played the ice location and then the tropic one. Nothing special, but you're just moving things to the right place. Actually, I expected better gameplay. It's a construction site, so much is possible to do in VR, but not in this game... Okay, then I started playing the Japan location... and I can't make a floor; the plates don't want to set in the highlighted spot. I restarted, played again, and every time I'm stuck with different bugs... FIX IT PLEASE! Yeah, the gameplay isn't so good, but please fix the bugs at least...

The game is very buggy, only managed to enter a world 2 times and can't access to any of the buildings right now. It got stucks at 89% download. And the worst part, the game has some wierd choices. I am a right hand person, but I can only hold the tools (such as hammer or axe) on my left hand. And I can't see there's a way to make my character right handed either. And overall, I can't play the game right now even after deleting and reuploading it. And the music sucks.

House Builder VR, created by PixelTrapps and published by FreeMind S.A., attempts to carve out a niche within the VR simulation genre by offering players the opportunity to construct a variety of culturally inspired houses from around the world. The game’s premise is certainly engaging—players can build everything from traditional African huts to igloos and Japanese-style homes, providing a sense of historical and geographical exploration through the hands-on process of construction. This blend of cultural education and creative building holds great promise, especially in virtual reality, where immersion and interaction are key elements. However, despite the appealing concept, the execution leaves much to be desired, and the overall experience is marred by several critical flaws. From a gameplay perspective, House Builder VR struggles to maintain player interest due to repetitive and shallow mechanics. While the idea of building distinct types of houses is interesting, the actual construction process is often described as monotonous and lacking in meaningful depth. Players find themselves repeating similar tasks with minimal variation, which diminishes the sense of progression and…

House Builder VR could have been something special — a cozy, educational building sim that truly immerses you in construction. But in its current form, it’s more like a rough prototype than a finished VR experience. If you really love the original House Builder, you might still have fun here. But expect slow pacing, rough visuals, and mechanics that weren’t built with VR in mind. Let’s just say… after House Builder 2, this one feels like a small step back — but at least it’s a functional one.

Same House Builder but in there you are literally inside a game :) Really fun experience, i have some link issues what cause some lags here and there but i think its my cable. Otherwise on Quest 2 works perfectly fine.
