Snapstick [Game Showcase]

In My Dog Zorro, players embark on a puzzle-filled adventure that brings over 500 mind-bending challenges, carefully crafted by the award-winning designer behind Linelight. Each puzzle introduces fresh, original mechanics; over 60 in total – designed to challenge your cognitive abilities in unexpected ways. From manipulating light and shadows to rotating objects in a fully immersive world, the game pushes the boundaries of what VR puzzle-solving can be. And with mixed reality support and intuitive hand-tracking controls, it’s an experience where you can ditch the controllers and let your hands take the lead.

Featuring music by Grant Kirkhope, adds an extra layer of charm and excitement to the experience, blending nostalgia with fresh tunes to enhance every puzzle you solve. Kirkhope’s music, known for iconic titles like Banjo-Kazooie, GoldenEye 007, and more recently, Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, fills the game with a vibrant energy that keeps you engaged throughout.

But My Dog Zorro isn’t just about puzzles – it’s got a quirky sense of humour and personality that keeps things light and entertaining. There’s the “Play Cupid” section, where a seemingly sweet task quickly escalates into chaos, proving that love really can be a battlefield. Meanwhile, “Shadow Work” challenges you to mess with size, light, and rotation in ways that make your brain do flips, bringing a whole new meaning to playing with shadows.

Then there’s the “Running Jokes” feature, where the game’s creators unapologetically fill the journey with pun-filled humour, promising no shortage of laughs, groans, and “ruff” situations. Whether it’s the cheeky quips or the unique scenarios, this game is not afraid to be playful with its content.

With its hands-on, mixed reality approach, My Dog Zorro delivers a fully immersive experience. Through the game’s passthrough mode, players can physically interact with puzzles in a way that feels organic – like you’re really in the world, solving problems with your own two hands. Get ready for a “white-glove service” as you dive deep into this blend of puzzling and VR magic. Whether you’re manipulating light, dodging cupid’s mischief, or cracking up at clever jokes, My Dog Zorro offers a VR puzzle adventure filled with creativity and nonstop surprises.
