Our take on Puppet Fever
The store presentation emphasizes the number of cards, puppets, and props, but the main activity remains improvised performance for other people. The included bots provide an alternative for solo play, though the social format is central to the design.
What is Puppet Fever?
Puppet Fever is a VR party game built around local, hot-seat performances for as many as four people, with no extra headsets or controllers needed.
Players use word prompts, puppets, props, improvised voices, and sound effects to convey scenes for the group. The current content includes over 500 English prompt cards with performance guidance, more than 500 Swedish cards, hundreds of puppet and prop options, 15 categories, five avatar masks, five computer-controlled performers, and two play styles. Mixer livestream support adds audience chat and interactive participation. Players can also stage puppet scenes, save them as images or videos, and post them to social media within the game. The title is in Early Access, and further content is planned.
