Our take on Richie's Plank Experience
The page gives substantial attention to bonus activities, but the central offering remains a brief plank-based psychological experience. That distinction matters for anyone approaching it as a conventional game rather than a VR attraction built around immediate reactions.
What is Richie's Plank Experience?
Richie's Plank Experience places players on a virtual plank high above a city and asks them to walk or remain still.
A real-world plank can be represented in the virtual scene, with adjustable length, width, height, and orientation. Additional activities include flying through the city, defending against missiles, putting out fires, and painting in the sky. Santa Simulator features a sleigh ride for delivering presents, while Nightmare Mode provides a more frightening version of the plank scenario. The product is presented as a psychological VR experience rather than a conventional game. Its safety guidance calls for two adult supervisors, a clear activity area, no running or jumping, and a rule against pushing or provoking participants.
