Higher Ground VR is a fun, social, word game played on a unique game board where the value of your word depends on where it is placed on the terrain. Words on a mountaintop are worth more than words at sea level; higher tiles mean higher points! Compete against one or more AI players in unlimited single player matches or take on up to 3 friends in dynamic multiplayer games. Chat and play with Oculus friends or share a code and start a private 30-minute match as you battle for Higher Ground.

Choose your in-game avatar from a selection of Ready Player Me avatars, adding a personal touch to every match. Whether you're playing solo or connecting with friends, Higher Ground VR offers a unique, immersive word-building experience. Future updates will include a competitive online mode with matchmaking for players ready to prove their skills, and many new gameboard options that highlight custom themes and gorgeous landscapes from around the world.

Imagine playing a wine themed game located in the heart of California’s Sonoma valley or building words on the gorgeous landscapes of the Piedmont region of Italy where only the finest Barolo or Barbaresco wines are enjoyed. Or trek to the mountain tops of Kilimanjaro or Mount Everest in pursuit of the highest scoring word.

Enjoy the most gorgeous sites in the world on a journey of custom wordsmithing and social connection with friends and family from anywhere on the planet

Needs a lot of work

I enjoy playing this Solo, but you need to add a Save Game button as well as verification from a dictionary. It wouldn’t allow me to make the word FRIDAY but the AI kept making up words that made no sense. I’ve taken screenshots of these if you would like to see them. Also, it would be nice to have a little celebration or trophy for the winner.

I was really looking forward to this game. Unfortunately it did not live up to my expectations. If I played solo with AI, it would constantly use nonsense words, ex. of one he used is “Mm”. While many of my words were correctly spelled words would not be accepted. If I played with a friend the game would constantly crash and throw up a “failed” screen, after that it would not let you back on for hours. Then by trying to play it and get through all these area, hoping it would magically get fixed, I used up my time and then was unable to get a refund. Please, please fix this. I gave this two stars in the hope it will be fixed.
