Tiny Castles is an "action puzzle game" built from the ground up using hand-tracking. It's an experimental project developed internally at Oculus to test necessary interactions for a hands-only game experience.

In the game, you play as a powerful god. The game's objective is simple - free your "believers" from the evil god and his minions and advance forward to destroy the obelisk which powers the evil in this world. The game was built to identify the types of game mechanics that could work well with hand-tracking. For this reason, it lacks real challenge and difficulty balancing and focuses more on showcasing a variety of hand interactions instead.

Included is the "Playground" level which is the best place to experience all of the game mechanics in an isolated setting while the actual game levels demonstrate these mechanics in real game scenarios.

Felt like it was made in a day at most

This games only saving point was it looked good. But I couldn’t enjoy that cause you can just leave the map at any time. Any puzzle you don’t half to do cause you can just go to the end and beat it. Combat sucks cause the game try’s to teach you stuff to fight but you can just grab and throw enemies into the void. Even in the moss temple I found an enemy that I can’t pick up and even then I DIDNT NEED TO DO IT!!!! I just went past it and beat the level. And even the levels I did do felt like I push a button and wait for two stupid thing it stand somewhere. There also is four levels which is just so little. Overall I didn’t pay anything and I still want my money back cause that was so bad.

I’m pretty sure that was just a demo, but if it wasn’t, I feel like it could be better, but if it was, I feel like that game has a good future in front of it

Please add controller support.

Love the game so far, except I’m constantly in situations were I feel things would be much easier with a controller. While using my hands is fun, I’m constantly pestered by everything breaking if I so much as look away from my hands. This felt like a pretty big deal, especially since this game is a lot more hands on then other hand tracking games like Elixir.

This game is awesome. 'Grab' it now. I am really enjoying this one. Hand tracking has always been a challenge for me but this one is cool enough to make me wanna try and master the moves. Some things can also be done with the controller but I am not sure all of the actions can. I do hope that all of these "spells" can be done with the controller because that would be really awesome as well. It is room-scale too so make sure to have obstacles out of the way because you will need to walk around to achieve some of the goals. I. Looking forward to playing all of it later on.
