Overview

Lucky's Tale is a delightful platforming adventure game designed exclusively for the Oculus Rift. Join Lucky as he runs, jumps, climbs and spins his way through a bright, colorful world filled with thrilling challenges, wacky creatures, and all the shiny things a little fox could ever want! Built from the ground up for virtual reality, Lucky's Tale offers a unique twist on the classic character action game (3rd-person-perspective platformer.) Its innovative approach to the camera, character motion, environment and gameplay all work together to provide a highly comfortable experience while allowing players to freely roam diverse, immersive environments. Whether you're racing with Lucky through lush trees, dodging swamp pits or battling menacing bosses, you'll feel like you’ve truly gone inside the world of a video game thanks to the magic of VR. One of gaming's most beloved genres has found a new home. Lucky's Tale is platforming the way it was always meant to be.

Lucky’s Tale serves its purpose and demonstrates how well third person view games can work in virtual reality. It is a colourful and fun little platformer that reminded me mostly of Crash Bandicoot, and that can never be a bad thing.

Lucky's Tale proves that VR and 3D platforming go together like peanut butter and jelly. So, why the heck aren't there more VR 3D platformers? Either way, what you get here is an absolute treat and I even enjoyed it more than the non-VR Lucky's Tale games.

Lucky's Tale hasn't aged perfectly since its 2016 release, but that's its only offense. It was — and still is — an excellent introductory VR title that offers a relaxed environment to get accustomed to VR within a family-friendly format that oozes charm. It's a great title for all age brackets and gaming abilities, but some may be put off by its short length, dated game design, and simple VR integration. Lucky's Tale may feel generic, but the enjoyable, colorful VR title delivers short bursts of happiness.
