Slice&Dice Reviews

This is a nice puzzle game which fits VR very well. Many problems require that you walk/teleport around and find the correct angle to apply your cutting tools. However at least for me it presents a steep learning curve: the first 32 levels were doable easily with a four star rating. Level 33 was hard and with a lot of trial and error I solved it just to be stuck at level 35 without a glue. The game offers 100 Levels and for me it seems that people loving hard puzzles will have a very good time while others might get frusted and leave the game. Update: With the first update they took care of my notes (see blow) and for me the game is now perfectly enjoyable! Furthermore I figured out how to solve the next few puzzles and this gives a nice satisfaction (and for me there are still 60 more levels to be solved...) Notes from my original review: Two additional notes: 1) While the music is ok, it is not my taste and I would prefer to have an option to turn it off. 2) I play with the Vive in roomscale and I understand that the game tries to offer many styles of movement, but for me it is anoying that teleport also allows for turning and thus requires me to rotate the press on the touchpad so that I don't change my orientation after teleport.

This game reminds me of the mobile game Cut the Rope and that's why I can't recommend it, not at the current suggested price. VR does not make this game more immersive or fun. I could have played this game on a mobile phone and it wouldn't have taken away from the experience all that much. The puzzles are nice, especially if you like this type of game. However, if you don't like Angry Birds or Cut the Rope or you're just tired of those types of games, then you won't like this either. Very tough call, because this is not a bad game. It works fine and the puzzles are nicely done. I got this game on sale and even then I can't recommend it. The most this game is worth is $2.99. I would change this to recommend for .99 cents. Rate 4/10, hate to downvote, but just not enough gaming fun for $9.99 in my opinion, would recommend only at lower price or if you love these type of puzzle games

What an adorable and well made puzzle game! Slice&Dice is a physics puzzle in the tradition of Cut the Rope (the real one, not the cheap clone avaliable for VR). That concept is magnified here, because you can cut whole surfaces producing a tridimensional domino effect trying to push the dice into the escape hole, and maybe even other items to collect. From the technical point of view, the game uses low poly untexturized assets with a good polishing and style, where it really excels is the soundtrack, a sort of Taito inspired collection of 8 bit tunes. Game's description indicates 100 levels and 20 hours, I'm updating my overall time as I'm stuck at 97/100 just now: still 20 hours seems a lot, but I'm at 9 hours and the length depends almost only on your skills and your intuition, the last dozen is a real nightmare to beat. Level design here is a thing, any single stage need to be understood in his logic or has a role in teaching you a new mechanic. In last chapters you're going to see also multi floor rooms and very Portal style kind of puzzles. Difficulty starts low and grows, as a puzzle lover it's exaclty the kind of challenge I was searching for. Not the right title for those easy to be frustrated, you won't beat this one without a good amount of patience, intuition and precision. I've played most of not early access puzzle games for VR, and by far my favourite was Bounce. I've to say than it's a draw: both are exceptional puzzle games, with an awesome use of VR and an amount of contents and challenge on par with best monitor titles. Slice&Dice is a masterpiece, don't be fooled by the price.
