Description: Meet Jentrix! This game was inspired by the famous board game and combines the very best of Jenga, match-3 and Tetris. And it’s all packed in Virtual Reality! We are pretty sure you know the classic Jenga, but what if instead of wooden blocks there would be colorful fruit cubes, the towers would grow every second, and crocodiles would try to bite your hands?
Review: As its name suggests ‘JENTRIX’ is a cross between Jenga and Tetris as you have to pull blocks out of your tower in order to make sets of 3. But you can place them anywhere and there are a load of distractions like hand-bitting crocodiles and ice freeze birds that will cause you even more problems. It’s colourful, simple to play and for the money, there is a surprisingly amount of content on offer here as well as a multiplayer mode! While I do wish there was a way to lower/higher the table height with one of the thumbsticks you can still reach up most of the time by simply playing standing. But adding that feature would make it more wheelchair friendly. I loved the game and only stopped playing it briefly to leave this review, but I am trying to do all the campaign missions which is going to take me a good long while.
