![]() ![]() News is always piping in from the Chair News Network, where swear words and odd staring contests reign supreme. Chairopia is a land where everyone nonsensically sits in chairs 24/7…their houses shaped like said chairs. Yes, those are weird babies stuck in Trover’s eye sockets.who upgrade by grossly eating other babies. The plot is likewise so utterly insane…while strangely believable…it encourages pushing the boundaries to their limit. ![]() This is the rare game where – based on comedic reward – almost every player will default to behaving like an absolute jerk. There’s nothing forcibly canned here, with endless incentive to intentionally push Trover’s buttons and/or revisit certain NPCs/areas. Moreover, Trover Saves the Universe’s brilliant, raunchy and funny script is completely reactive to how Trover and your Chairopian character interact with each other also level nuances. Interoperability between the two is virtual gaming poetry. The two must interact with each other to complete actions and levels, a clever interchange of mixing seated player heights for visibility with Trover’s jumping and combat to traverse and extend levels. Gameplay is literally responsive to your (background) seated (‘Chairopian’) headset and controller movements, brilliantly offset by a secondary character (an alien named Trover) simultaneously analog stick operated in a 3-d space within the foreground. In contrast, Trover Saves the Universe is flat-out genius in its immersion factor. While entertaining in small spurts, they really are little more tech demos with a chance of giggle. They immerse you in an alternate and confined version of everyday life, and toss in insane possibilities sans physical consequence for comedic effect. Other games – like Job Simulator, as an example – do a decent job at the comedy VR genre. If you own an Oculus Quest and do not offend easily, consider this a must buy. Why? It’s literally designed for VR and not in a gimmick sense, gameplay is outstanding, and the humor/writing is laugh-out-loud funny. A bold statement perhaps, but Trover Saves the Universe may be the best Oculus Quest title to date. ![]()
