Description: Grapply is a racing game where players use grapple beams to pull themselves around tracks and through the air racing against the AI. You will need to master using grapple beams to beat 7 AI racers and enter your name on the leader-board in one of 5 themed tracks. Each one with its own personality and skills required.
Review: Grapply was a bold attempt to redesign the racing game genre. While I am happy to give it the nod of approval for the idea the game that is born out of that idea is little more than a low-polygon mess of a game that is probably the most nauseating game I have played in VR. If the tracks had been in a straight line this might have been OK, but they are no and oh boy will you struggle just to stay on the track. This is just one of those freebies that you can download as a demo and I can’t suggest you even do that. A good idea I suppose, just not done in this way.
