We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Holiday fans who want a seasonal decorating puzzle

- Families seeking a tree-decorating game with several play modes
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a broad range of settings or themes may find the holiday tree-decorating premise narrow.
- Players who prefer a fixed endpoint may not enjoy Infinite Mode, which ends only when the tree topples.
- Players without a supported VR headset cannot use the listed room-scale VR setup.
Our take on Tippy Tree
The focus on balancing ornaments gives the decorating theme a puzzle constraint: careful placement matters, and Hard Mode adds the risk of crushing items. That trade-off limits the relaxed decorating option to Decoration Mode, where the tree is fixed in place.
What is Tippy Tree?
Tippy Tree is a virtual-reality puzzle game about decorating a tree while managing its balance.
Puzzle Mode presents a sequence of trees that become progressively more prone to tipping. Hard Mode adds ornaments that can be crushed by squeezing too firmly, while Infinite Mode continues until the tree falls. Decoration Mode fixes the tree in place for worry-free decorating. Players can find gifts that unlock ornaments, with 30 unique ornaments available to collect and use. The game supports room-scale play with HTC Vive, Oculus Rift, and Windows Mixed Reality headsets.
