Hooked on Holes: A Captivating Puzzler

Rescue the Holes delivers exactly what it promises—a straightforward "get the ring from start to finish" puzzle with decent graphics. However, don't let its simplicity fool you; the gameplay is where this game truly shines. With three different difficulty levels, I found myself irresistibly drawn into its world, compelled to see each level through to the end. The game's addictive nature cannot be overstated. It has that elusive "just one more try" hook that keeps you coming back for more. The developers have mentioned that they hope to release additional puzzles, and if they do, I’ll be among the first to dive back in. One of the standout features is the mixed reality integration. Navigating the puzzles in a 3D space adds a whole new layer of immersion, as you walk around and find the best angles to solve each puzzle. This feature elevates the game from a simple puzzle to an engaging, interactive experience. For puzzle enthusiasts, Rescue the Holes is absolutely worth the price. Its blend of challenging gameplay and innovative mixed reality elements make it a must-try. Don’t hesitate—give this one a go!

Simple idea but really good game!

This game is really fun and has exceeded my expectations! I bought it half expecting that I'd be asking for a refund (maybe because it's so cheap I expected it to be low quality) but actually it's an excellent game that I'll be keeping and playing lots more. It's such a simple concept, guide the hoop along a tube and past obstacles - but there's plenty of creativity so that it stays fun to play and gets increasingly challenging. This sort of game works so well in mixed reality, I'm impressed and happy with it! Tip - on my Quest 3 I've found using the trigger button to hold the ring works better than the grip button. The grip button sometimes lets go for some reason. Suggestions - let players see their high score (and best time) for each individual level, rather than just seeing a running overall total. This way there's more incentive to replay levels. There could also be a scoreboard to see other players best scores/times. EDIT - Now the grip button has been fixed and there are leader boards!

everyone should pay attention.

The circle is very special and cute, and the operation is very simple but not easy to pass. If there is a cooperative mode, I will recommend all my friends to buy it. This game is sure to be a great addition to a fun party. A good game that everyone should pay attention.

It feels like Super Mario!

This game is really freaking cool! At first you would think it might not be because its so simple looking but trust me this is a hidden gem. You have to move a ring around multiple pipes and obstacles as you try to hit the sides of anything or you will loose health. I didnt realize it at first but the more i played it the more i realized its kinda like super mario! There are a ton of levels to get through with several different difficulties that make the game a real challenge. There is even a world leaderboard to try and beat your friends scores which makes it that much more fun and adds replay value to the game. 100% worth downloading and checking out. I love the nice calming music as you make your way through the puzzles. The game truly wants you to get better and better and faster and faster. Love it and its a great use of mixed reality!
