Our take on Crazy Machines VR
The store presentation gives equal weight to a story journey and playful toy rooms, but the core structure is a 40-level chain-reaction puzzle campaign. The sandbox activities add variety, yet they are separate from the staged riddles rather than a broader simulation system.
What is Crazy Machines VR?
Crazy Machines VR is a physics-based puzzle game played from inside virtual reality.
Players take the role of the Crazy Professor and solve chain reactions by arranging and interacting with machine parts, including objects such as anvils, eggs, pans, rockets, and laser guns. The campaign follows a journey through different worlds and includes 40 levels. A grumpy assistant-bot can provide hints when a puzzle proves difficult. Separate sandbox rooms provide less structured activities, including popping balloons, striking a dummy, cloning boxing gloves, throwing baskets, and using a pinball table. The game also includes a story involving the Professor, a mysterious package, unusual dimensions, and the Clumsycorns.
