Description: Experience slackline like in real life in this built-for-VR game. Balance over rocks, trees, water, houses and much more. And remember – don’t fall down! Can you get across all levels? I warn you, just like in real life, it’s not easy.
Review: ‘Slackline VR’ is pretty much what its title suggests it is. It is a slacklining app that sees you trying to balance across 6 levels with varying degrees of length (of the slackline) and in various degrees of difficulty due to the length of that said slackline. It requires zen levels of balance, but while it does take a good while to get the hang of things you can easily do all the levels with enough practice and patients. The levels look good and the gameplay is surprisingly addictive. Sure, it’s nowhere near a realistic interpretation of slacklining because you can’t do any stunts, but it is still a fun balance game that the whole family will enjoy having a crack at.
