One of the oddest VR experiences on the market that blends platforming with bouncy castle aesthetics.

While To the Top may be a bit short on polish its sense of movement is fantastic. Once you’ve got the hang of managing your momentum you can practically fly through the levels, springing from point to point like a hypercaffeinated frog. Every level offers something different, whether that be new scenery, air-vortex jump pads, special surfaces that let you skate over them and even one memorable level that gives you jetpack hands. (That particular level made me glad to play at night when nobody was watching so they couldn’t see me with arms pointed back, leaning forward to get just the right angle to skim ahead at top speed.) The multiple routes and hidden challenges make each area highly replayable, and while some levels aren’t quite as good as others, at least they’re different enough so if you don’t like one there’s a complete change of pace coming right up. To the Top is a fantastically creative first-person VR platformer, filled with great challenges and giving the player the tools to handle them if only they can master the techniques.

Despite the lack of multiplayer and the horror of ham-fisted progression gates, To The Top is still one of the most singularly fun experiences I’ve ever had inside my VR headset. It’s gameplay is simple, but addictive, and rewards skillful play while never demanding you become an expert all at once. The progression gates are annoying but mostly because they held me back from tearing into more of this truly amazing experience.

If a wet dream of you falling to you're death get you morning wood. Well this king game will fill that joy of living it over and over again. I still can't get the smell of $hit out of my Fav. Boxers. i wish there was more or hell i would take a DLC.

Great Parkour|Racing VR game: highly polished with unique and highly entertaining gameplay and amazing level design. All it's missing is the level editor to get infinite replayability. On a very subjective side: I didn't like the music too much. For the game that require multiple playthroughs, songs with vocal may not be the best choice, because they get old quicker than instrumental tracks.
