Remember to check playtimes of reviews. A chunk of the positive reviews that seemingly recommend this game have less than an hour play time in it. Not very promising when someone who apparently likes a game can't even get more than a couple hours of playtime out of it. Full disclosure: I got this with a very cheap bundle. The cost of the game for me was probably a dollar, and even at that price I cant recommend it. There are a couple of pitfalls that make it very hard / unplayable for me, and I suspect it's also a contributing factor to why so many of the people reviewing this have such little played time regardless if they recommend it or not. 1: Can't use both hands to hold / manipulate objects. This is a big one. Aside from it feeling unnatural, it's quite literally a massive pain in my wrist to rotate objects this way. The repeated motion of twisting your wrist -> setting the piece down -> picking it back up and repeating "X" amount of times to turn the pieces far enough is not only slow, but gets uncomfortable / painful very quickly. 2: Lack of snapping / easy way to align things. The game points out in one of the tutorials that the physics aren't entirely consistent. That means having a tiny gap or bump in the track can potentially throw off the way your entire build works, assuming you can even build for more than 5 mins with the wrist pain. Having absolutely no other way to line up track other than using your potentially shaky hands makes building significantly less fun. You sit there wasting more time on lining every piece of track up than you do actually building / enjoying the game. 3: Very limited selection of items. People that like this genre want to build stupid crazy wacky machines. Unfortunately, the selection is very limited. Not to say you couldn't build something cool, but it would be better with a wider selection. The last update for this game was almost a year ago and the community discord seems dead. I can't recommend the game in its current state, and sadly I don't think there's much hope for an update that fixes the main 2 problems I have with it. If you want a really good marble machine game that has significantly more content / track snapping, look into Marble World. It's not VR, but it's at a lower price point, has more everything, and you can get really crazy with what you do in that game.
