This is a great little puzzle game! I added it to my library with the intention of just having another vanilla title for guests not interested in fighting robots or swinging swords to play. I was pleasantly surprised to find a combination of good puzzles and intuitive controls that got me hooked as well. This is a great title for kids, but still lots of fun for adults too.

It’s a puzzle platformer where you guide penguins to safety, avoiding aliens and robots. You know, normal day-to-day type stuff. It’s casual, it’s cute, and I like it enough to give it a solid thumbs: UP! Good for kids too!

It's difficult to leave a 'not recommended' on what is a harmless, inexpensive (sale price), mostly entertaining, movie-length, sit-down VR game. However, a few rough levels, the tacky mobile game interface, and poor Oculus compatibility keep the game away from any serious recommendation. Waddle Home doesn't really benefit from being in VR and choosing to develop for on a mobile platform would have seemed appropriate and more accessible.

Waddle Home is a fun puzzle game in the genre of ChuChuRocket (Dreamcast). Release a penguin from it's cage and it will walk forward untill it hits an obstacle, then turns right and walks forward again. Get the penguin to the spaceship! Collect the eggs along the way. Sounds simple but the levels become more and more complex. It's a great family game or if you want to cool down from actiongames. Looks good, sounds good, runs great, good price. Specs: i7 6700k, 16GB RAM, R9 390.

This game is awesome! You can tell it was made for the Vive. Easily one of the prettiest games I have right now. The gameplay is a lot of fun, and there seems to be a good number of levels. It feels very polished, not buggy at all unlike a lot of other VR games out right now. I got this game for 30% off ($7), definitely worth the price! Even seems like a bargain for $10. Check it out!

Very fun puzzle game that gets increasingly challenging as you advance through the levels. This game is a perfect fit for VR as you have to look around at different angles to see everything, I can't imagine playing it without VR. Only complaint is that it's a little short, I beat all levels and collected all eggs in 2 hours. But it is one of the most polished games for VR right now and for $10 I think its worth it if you like puzzle games.

[h1] Experienced on the Oculus Rift with Touch Controllers [/h1] Very tough call here. I would like to give a neutral recommendation. Honestly, I just didn't like the puzzles. I finished 13 and sort of don't have it in me to keep going. I didn't find the puzzles difficult, just annoying. Especially in the later puzzles where they put enemy guards that you have to avoid. The best way to describe these puzzles is that it's a maze you have the penguins navigate by changing the paths to get to the desired destination. Your penguins always turn right and the guards always turn left. You have switches to direct the path of the penguins. If you move the switch, a barricade erects and the penguin turns right earlier or gets over an obstacle, or whatever the case may be. So by doing this you can capture eggs or get to the exit. Your goal is to collect all 3 eggs and find the exit. The animations are cute. The controls are intuitive. VR does add something to this as you can easily see the whole map to guide your penguin so the puzzles become 3 dimensional. Puzzles did get increasingly more difficult with each level. It just wasn't for me. It's not a bad game per se. Sale price rating 5/10. I think the normal price is way too high for what it is. At the Steam summer sale, it may be worth it, if you really like these types of puzzles. The low sale price is the only reason I'm keeping this as positive, but it's really neutral.

Waddle home is is a a very cute game that does nothing to hide it's mobile app influences. From the start screen, to the puzzle level mechanics and simple interactions, this, at heart, screams app store. I'm not sure that the casual game mechanic is a perfect one for the immersive experience of VR, as opposed to idling away a train trip, but I cannot deny, it was fun. Standing in the freezing arctic water was a nice touch, but I really wanted to resize the island a bit, it looked a little small for my liking. I am giving it the thumbs up as it is well made, cute, complete, well thought out and deserves to be seen. My kids are eager to give it a go and I'm sure they'll love it - but just be aware, this is not a game that utilises VR to its full, it's a casual puzzler that could quite as easily been on my phone.
