Virtual reality (VR) has changed the way we experience games, and Rig Rebels brings its own challenges to the format. Here is an introduction to the game, what to look out for and a few tips to help new players get started.
How does Rig Rebels work?
In Rig Rebels, you take on the role of a mechanic aboard an interstellar cargo ship and compete to finish with the highest score. Collect power-ups, climb along pipes to explore the ship and shoot rival players to earn points or stop them collecting more.
What should you bear in mind?
Keep these points in mind when playing Rig Rebels:
- Awareness of your surroundings: Pay attention to your surroundings when playing in VR so you can avoid collisions and move carefully through the play space.
- Tactics: Watch the other players, the available points and the pipes you can climb along. Choosing your route well can help you reach the top of the scoreboard.
- Time management: The game ends when time runs out, so make the most of each moment. Avoid spending too long chasing one opponent or a single high-scoring opportunity.
- Every player for themselves: Rig Rebels is a free-for-all, so keep an eye on every rival. Look for openings in their play and take advantage of the lack of organised teams.
Tips for beginners
Rig Rebels can take a little getting used to. These tips can help:
- Start with the tutorial: Before jumping into a game, work through the tutorial to learn the basics and get familiar with the controls.
- Keep track of your priorities: It is easy to lose focus, especially as the clock runs down. Decide what to do next and keep your objectives in mind.
- Use power-ups: The game offers power-ups that can help you complete tasks or overcome obstacles. Make use of them when you find them.
