Description: Ganbatte is a competitive social multiplayer arcade game for VR, about cats, in space, eating sushi. Try to eat as much valuable sushi as you can and reach the highest score.
Review: The story goes that ‘Ganbatte’ is about space cats trying to eat as much sushi as they can to challenge each other. Yes, I know that sounds weird and indeed it is. As a cat, you and up to 3 friends online (although there is a single-player mode against an AI) will sit at the table and need to stick as may plates of sushi into your mouths as possible. The faster you eat, the more score. There are three timed rounds and you need to work out which plates are worth more than others. While there are no other players online these days it was still a laugh to play on my own. I will suggest getting this plate eating madness in a sale as paying £5.19 for it will leave you feeling short-changed.
