NYC Bungee

Game received from ViveVR groups curator program see bottom of review to join. Video gameplay of all activities. https://youtu.be/LFR600G_bB4?t=96 A short experience featuring 3 different activities situated around the Statue Of Liberty. Bungee of the torch, climb up the statue and a short balloon ride up to the height of the statue. The bungee jump was done quite well but unsure how many times you'd do it, Didn't make me feel ill as falling sometimes does in VR. Climbing was ok but there are already plenty of these types of VR experiences. The balloon ride was rather lame and just went up and down without going in any other direction. Still it's ok for a new to VR type experience but may be priced a little high. Still recommended if you want a bungee experience in VR. 4/10 so just below average due to price.

Well... yeah not a great game. The bungee jump will make anyone feel at least a little motion sick as it turns you upside down and no... not in a good way, it doesn't feel at all realistic and to be honest is very boring. The climbing is kinda cool i guess but needs improvements as your view constantly goes black as your head goes inside the wall in front of you and again it isn't realistic and that breaks immersion. Also, the 'movement' is dreadful so people with small play areas will struggle to play as there is no teleport or walk around functionality. The hot air balloon feels pointless as all it does is go up slowly to the same height as the Statue of Liberty. However, the one good thing with this game is the art style, it is quite pleasant to look at for a short period and then it gets boring, but the lighting is pretty. At the least the price isn't unreasonable, could still be cheaper for what you get, perhaps they will improve the feel of the game a little and the climbing, and then at least you can call this a pretty good VR 'experience' that you'll play once or twice and then you'll show to your grandma or something. Wish them luck with this game.

A plank-type experience that for the barely 6 euros it costs, is worth it. I have used Windows Mixed Reality (Samsung Odyssey Plus) and it works perfecty. :) There are three options: ride a balloon, climb the Statue of Liberty, and take the elevator up to the top of the Statue and jump into bungee jumping. The experience of climbing the Statue and bungee jumping is quite realistic and fun. The graphics do their job and the sense of height is fantastic. The balloon ride is just gaining height, it would be nice to go around the Statue. One thing they should add is the option to move around with the sticks. You can only move on foot but if you are in a small room, it is difficult to get some grip on the climbs, or enter the elevator. In summary, a good experience to show to visitors and friends when they want to try virtual reality.

There's only 20 minutes of content here, but I still thoroughly recommend it.

No doubt a thrilling and terrifying experience but very well implemented, didn’t feel nauseas/sick at any point. The bungee plank had me crawling on all fours, couldn’t just jump off; had to close my eyes and tumble off awkwardly. Ballon ride has beautiful views of Liberty Island, nice and relaxing especially after a jump.

With all my strong fear of heights -- such a great game! Not only the bungee, but the climbing is one of the best I ever did in VR and the balloon is pretty cool (I doubt I will ever do it in real life, so thank you VR!). Can't want to have my family try it as well
