Chicks and Tricks VR Reviews

I would really like to recommend this game. but I can't yet. The devs need to fix some stuff first. I will update this review when those things change. Mainly The play area needed is way too big. WAY to big. We live in a fairly large room, and the center area is about 2.5 x 2.5 meters of open space, and its not enough. We still ended up smashing a finger on a computer desk, scarping a finger against a stucco wall, almost destroying a room fan, and hitting our TV with a controller, to say just a few. It seems to want to keep the farmer in the canter, so moving 2 steps in real life, moves you only half a meter in the game, so you end up moving a lot farther than you should. This would make a great family game, or date game, but you would not want your date bashing your apartment up, or bashing their hand (or finger) on something, and hating you afterward. I do not mind the fox controls being like you are running on ice. it makes it more of a challenge, but there should be a way to adjust the play area, so the farmer does not destroy the room you are in. Again... great concept. simple, but way to destructive, to recommend.

Simple fun for the wife and I. great with kids too. only one objective. keep the fox out of your chicken patch.

lazy. you could have atleast had a few more gamemodes or variations. this game has less than 5 minutes of content. one of the areas for capturing the chickens wasnt even accessible. the game is horribly imbalanced only the fox can win.

Fun, unique party game. Requires about 2x2 meters of play space, but you can get by with 1.5 x 1.5 as "chicks" run chaotically and don't generally get out of reach. My only problem is that with smaller space it's difficult to reach all corners of map as farmer, some way to extend player's reach would be nice (like retractable net or scaling the world in vr ?)

You kind of get what you pay for, very fun to play with a friend even though the fox has it way easier. It could maybe use a few more maps just to shake things up. I think the farmer should get a buff as well, even though i'm not sure how they'd do that.

The gameplay is unironically very funny and for two dollars you can do so much worse. Although It's got a bit of a unpolished aura about it, there's just enough charm and work put in to make it worth imo. 7/10

I've really enjoyed this game when we had a party. It causes quite some chaos and laughs in such an atmosphere! It's a simple game and requires multiplayer. I've yet to encounter any issues whatsoever. There's no option menu, but that honestly doesn't really matter for a game like this, with this price.

Very cute VR vs PC play, a lot of fun/laughs can be had. Currently only one game mode, repetitive but fun. The game needs some polish but the devs are listening and adding things regularly from what I've seen. Need some one local on your PC as well as in VR.

Great game for the family! First game the wife was able to play without getting sick. We have chickens so this game really took off with the kids.

Played 6 games total with my husband. We both played 3 games each as fox and farmer. Out of our 6 games the farmer only won once. This game is heavily imbalanced towards the fox. The farmer's net physics are wonky, which makes it hard to reliably get chickens into his pen. In contrast, the fox can very easily run into a chicken to eat it. While the farmer can hit the fox to stun it, the stun doesn't last that long. The game is also easier for the fox because the fox can see the whole arena, while the farmer only sees what's in front of him. I think more audio cues for the farmer could help here. In the one game the farmer won, he spammed the net behind him to keep the fox at bay/stunned, which required a lot of exertion/effort to do. I also measured my play space and had the minimum 2m x 1.5m play area, yet I was still banging into walls/furniture around me as I tried to reach things just outside of my playarea. I think this game has potential to be awesome, but the mechanics and physics of the farmer and fox need to be revisited.
