Is Boxplosion worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- VR users who want to experiment with particle systems rather than play a conventional action game
- Creative players who want to assemble custom scenes using an in-game editor
- Simulation fans who prefer hands-on controller interaction to observing a simulation passively
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players looking for a structured campaign or mission progression may find the open-ended simulation scope limited.
- Those seeking varied objectives across repeated sessions may find that the experience centers on manipulating and arranging particle systems.
- Players without Vive or Oculus Rift hardware are outside the stated platform support.
Our take on Boxplosion
Rather than organizing play around missions or a campaign, Boxplosion centers on manipulating particle systems and building scenes. The editor shifts the structure toward experimentation, with control over visual elements such as models, skies, lights, materials, and emitters.
What is Boxplosion?
Boxplosion is a VR particle simulation that uses VR controllers to interact with particle systems, emit particles, and control time.
The simulation supports up to 250,000 particles with physics. Players can also build scenes with the in-game editor, changing 3D models, skies, lights, materials, and emitters. The game can export GIF animations and screenshots. It is described for Vive and Oculus Rift.
