Description: Block Smashers is an action packed VR puzzle game that requires you to use your best strategy skills and collect all the crystals. By throwing soccer balls, you must knock down different structures and collect all the crystals to make the rank of Gold, Silver, or Bronze. Blow up blocks with TNT and use your best strategy skills to make gold every time! One more thing though, watch out for the chicken, he can be quite explosive.
Review: In another world ‘Block Smashers VR’ might have worked as an Angry Birds game clone, but in this one, it sadly fails miserably. With only a handful of levels and the most basic of graphics, this game was never really going to get off the ground. I like the idea of playing Angry Birds only with footballs, but unless I can kick the ball or launch it from a cannon of sorts it kind of fails to be fun. This is one clone that really isn’t anywhere near as good as the game it takes inspiration from and despite the low price, I would leave this one well alone unless it suddenly becomes free.
