Description: Bocce VR Simulator – a simple game known to mankind for years with a lot of fans. The simplicity of the rules and the ability to play anywhere make the game suitable for everyone, both for the younger and the older ones. In this game, physical skills are important, as well as strategies and a bit of luck, which introduces some kind of randomness. The object of the game is to throw the balls as close to the Palino as possible. For balls that are closer to the opponent’s balls than the opponent’s balls, a corresponding point reduction is given. The game ends when the player reaches a certain number of points.
Bocce VR is the perfect simulator where all the rules and details of the game are included. Thanks to the perfect representation of the pitch and surroundings, the game takes a realistic form. The ability to play with a friend increases the desire to compete and win even more, which results in much more excitement. So put on your VR headset and indulge in the world of Bocce VR
Review: Much like ‘Bocce Beach’ before it ‘Bocce VR Simulator’ is once again a Bocce ball sports simulator (otherwise known as British bowls and French pétanque). There is a multiplayer mode here, but you don’t need me to tell you that there are no other players online, so you will need to get a friend to play it as well. While much better made than ‘Bocce Beach’ it is once again little more than a Bocce sports simulator. It is never going to feel as good as playing the real thing, but I thought it felt pretty good and was pretty responsive making the game feel much better than other Bocce simulators, but the really good news is the price is about the same at £2.89 and for that price this is worth a look, provided all you want to do is play Bocce. If you do, give this a whirl as it is probably the best Bocce simulator in VR (but that is not saying much).
