Gnomes & Goblins is a passion project from executive producer Jon Favreau. In the game, you are surrounded by characters that resemble Grogu from the Mandalorian. The charm of Gnomes & Goblins can be seen and heard throughout the short run time in this creative cinematic experience. Gnomes & Goblins in VR melds exploration and adventure gameplay mechanics. All things Great and Small One trope in video games that draws me in and oftentimes fills me with awe and wonder is size and scaling.

A gorgeous forest setting is sullied by an extremely short story and little explanation of what to do. Once you figure it out, however, you'll be charmed by all the little details and, of course, the adorable characters. For - Gorgeous visuals - Rewards players for looking closely at everything - Absolutely adorable, fascinating creatures - The world feels like a true living simulation - Height adjustment makes it easy for younger players to enjoy Against - Ultra-short story - Little explanation of what to do - Relatively shallow content for the price - Steep performance requirements Gnomes & Goblins Visuals, performance, and setting This game has the Art™.

Gnomes & Goblins started out so well and would have easily suited that style for another hour, providing a short entertaining experience. Instead what’s been presented is a piece of content with two distinctly different sides, the latter trying to flesh out the former with inconsistent gameplay which waters down the charm. If you pick up Gnomes & Goblins enjoy the beginning sequence and then replay, just don’t go any further.

I'm hopeful that the Gnomes & Goblins developers can address these performance issues quickly. There's still a lot of design work that needs to be addressed if they want this game to be as great as its concept. Until then, Gnomes & Goblins is little more than a stuttering tech demo that doesn't capture the imaginative concept it so desperately craves to be.
