Description: Pop’s is the most fun shooter game available in VR today! You are in total immersion in a world of toys with the mission of recycling those intended for the trash. For this, you have a pistol in each hand. Initially, they’re simple (and fun) spring-loaded pistols, but if you shoot well, you can evolve them. In front of you is a balloon distributor which, according to your choice, will distribute 4 to 6 different balloons, you load them into your guns using your triggers. Toys are routed to large bins located right in front of you via large wheels and treadmills that accelerate steadily.

Review: ‘Pop’s’ is a fun little arcade stall style shooter in which you have to shoot various toys with a colour corresponding ball. Set in a funfair style setting the graphics are bright and colourful keeping with the fun theme. The good news is the gameplay is also fun and very simple to get into (despite the long, drawn-out tutorial). Provided you are going to play this at a VR party with friends or you just enjoy chasing your own score you will get your money’s worth there, but in truth, there really isn’t a lot of content. Sure, its not original and you don’t get a lot for your money, but its a bit of fun for a small price and that is good enough for me.
