Played using Meta Quest 3 with Virtual Desktop [100% Completed] Final score: 9/10 Graphics & Performance The first thing that stands out in this game is its visual style. Instead of going for hyper-realistic graphics, the game uses a cartoonish style that works extremely well. The environments are colorful, expressive and full of personality, and this kind of art style helps the game age much better over time. Even though the graphics are relatively simple, they still look great and the game runs extremely well. It is surprisingly lightweight and does not require high end hardware to run smoothly. I originally played it using an RTX 2060 with 6 GB of VRAM and was getting very stable performance with framerates around 90 FPS or more in VR. This is a great example of how good art direction can matter more than pushing raw graphical power. Gameplay, Movement & VR Interaction The control scheme itself is not something totally new. There are already plenty of VR games where you control a character from a third person perspective while looking at the world around you, which basically feels like playing a flat game inside VR. What makes this one interesting is how it places you directly inside the world. Instead of just watching the protagonist from far away, you are actually part of the environment as a character. You play as a Chairorpian, an alien that spends its entire life sitting in a floating chair. From that position you exist inside the world in first person and can freely turn around to look at everything happening around you. At the same time you control Trover in third person, moving him through the environment, fighting enemies and doing platforming sections. In your hands you hold a virtual game controller that represents how you control Trover. This controller is not just cosmetic. You use it to check Trover's status, interact with certain parts of the world and solve puzzles using abilities that you unlock during the game. The game works perfectly with the Meta Quest controllers. That said, there is honestly no real advantage in using them. The only real difference is that you can physically lift the in-game controller with your hands. Because of that I ended up connecting a Bluetooth Xbox controller to the headset and played the rest of the game that way, which felt totally natural. The whole game is meant to be played sitting down. Movement around the levels happens by teleporting between specific spots rather than moving freely anywhere you want. Some people will probably like that since it keeps things comfortable in VR, while others might find it a bit limiting. Story & Characters You play the entire game as the silent Chairorpian, mostly watching the story unfold while other characters talk around you, especially Trover. But you are not just some invisible spectator. The Chairorpian is an actual character in the story. Trover and several other NPCs constantly talk directly to you, react to your presence and include you in their conversations. It makes the whole thing feel way more interactive and helps sell the idea that you are part of the world. The dialogue style is very recognizable if you know Justin Roiland's work. The humor follows that same chaotic vibe from Rick and Morty. Characters ramble a lot, repeat the same ideas in slightly different ways and say some completely ridiculous stuff that barely makes sense sometimes. That is basically the whole joke. If you enjoy that kind of humor you will probably have a blast with the dialogue. It has the same energy seen in High On Life. Weird conversations, awkward jokes and a lot of absurd nonsense. DLC The game also has a completely free DLC that adds a good chunk of extra content. It brings a new environment, new characters, some extra areas to explore and a bunch of new quests. It fits the tone of the main game really well and adds a bunch of new funny moments. That said the DLC does feel a little bit unfinished in some ways. There are several areas that you can clearly see in the environment or hear characters talking about, but they never actually become accessible. One example is an entire second floor that gets mentioned multiple times during the DLC. It sounds like something important might happen there, but it never opens. It basically turns into a big running joke inside the game. Still, since this DLC is completely free and only adds more content, it is definitely worth checking out. It is short but still really fun. Achievements The achievements are pretty fun to go for and encourage you to explore the game more carefully. I ended up completing 100% of them. Most of them involve doing specific actions or collecting things during the game. None of them are insanely difficult but they do require some attention and a bit of effort. Once you finish the story the game unlocks a chapter select menu. This makes it very easy to go back to specific parts of the game if you missed a collectible or skipped an achievement during your first run. Because of that getting full completion feels fair and totally doable. Final Thoughts This game is honestly just a really fun ride. The mix of absurd humor, creative environments and the way the player is inserted into the world makes the whole experience stand out in VR. If you like the kind of humor that comes from the creator of Rick and Morty, this game is basically a full plate for you. The dialogue and story moments lean heavily into that chaotic style. Even for someone like me who is not the biggest fan of Justin Roiland's style, the game is still fantastic and never feels boring. This is easily one of the best VR games out there. The only real downside is the DLC. Even though it is fun and completely free, it can feel a bit disappointing because several areas look like they should be explorable but never actually open. The game even jokes about unlocking a second floor that never becomes accessible. Still, that small frustration does not take away from how good the overall experience is. If you enjoy VR and like weird comedy games, this one is absolutely worth playing. Final score: 9/10 ⭐

If you like Rick and Morty humor, this is a game you would likely enjoy. The actual gameplay is alright surprisingly, and unlike a lot of comedic games it isn't a buggy mess. This game did not crash a single time, which is impressive with the current video game scene, and is fully playable with controller so you can just lie back and enjoy it. For people struggling to open the game, force it out of VR mode. For some reason VR mode will cause it to crash randomly instead of starting even if you specifically select non-vr mode at startup. Just open properties and add this to the opening command field. "-novr" Minor spoilers for if you haven't played or finished the game yet and would like to skip some tedium and really enjoy the game - If I were to play it again, I would skip the collectables as they are kind of tedious, and aren't really linked to extra content aside from a single joke at the end. I probably spent double the time playing the game to get all of them for the joke at the end, and it was funny but wasn't worth it. If you are reading this and haven't completed the game to get the joke, I very strongly recommend looking up the joke in question to see it to save you almost 90% of the tedium in the game. Also, the button puzzle in the first level is in fact, impossible. That is the joke. I spent maybe 20 minutes mapping all the possible combinations to figure this for sure, and some people online say it is possible but it's really just a joke. This is shown later in the game as well but I won't go into details to avoid ruining any jokes in advance.

Trover Saves The Universe ”Do you guys know what a wall is?” ”Non VR Review” So I played this without VR just using a gamepad. The game is a fun platformer with combat and light puzzles. It plays great and is an enjoyable game. Playing it in VR will of course be a more immersive experience You could speed run the game in probably 5 hours. But if you take your time and do everything and enjoy the dialogue your looking about 10 hours. If you like Rick & Morty and High on Life and their brand of loose almost improvisational humour, you will enjoy this. It's a shame what has come out of the woodwork about Justin Roiland in the last couple of years, but if you ever were a fan I would highly recommend. ”VR Review” Pending, should I ever be bothered to get VR. Trail-Dave ”Go ahead and try to jump on it, you cant. There is collision detection on every part of this wall“
