About

An addictive augmented reality puzzle game for the PS Vita system that challenges players to think “outside the box”. The goal is simple: open the box and collect the items inside. But be prepared – each box has its own unique traps that require you to think creatively. There is also a multiplayer mode where communication skills and speed between players are key to opening these boxes. Take the challenge and think outside the box!

    It’s far from perfect (and technology is at least partly to blame here) but it’s refreshing to play something a bit different on the Vita. Whether it’s worth the price of admission depends on whether you like puzzle games, but as AR games go this is the first title that’s actually shown me that maybe one day AR games will be more than just a gimmick.

    ... Open Me doesn’t have the rich atmosphere of Fireproof Games’ award-winning puzzler ....

    I found I couldn't put the game down, as I tried to beat my time and unlock more boxes. It's simple, yet challenging, and although it seems low-tech, it actually gives you some rather high-tech contraptions to overcome. It's not just one of the best AR games available, but one of the most fun, challenging, and satisfying puzzle titles on the Vita in general.

    Open Me is tough but a ton of fun. Solving the puzzles is an enormously satisfying experience, and the online creation aspect is a brilliant idea. The augmented reality can be a touch finicky in places, but creative design ensures that the title eschews the gimmicky nature of similar releases. Don't be a square and give this one a go.

    The sheer inventiveness of the boxes can keep you coming back for more, at the same time as the many frustrations drive you away. Still, there are just too many technical flaws in this overly demanding game to recommend it. The AR gimmick has promise as a great way to blend virtual reality, motion controls, and touchscreen gaming, but it has not been realized in this overreaching, flawed puzzle game.

    Fun, challenging and addictive, OPEN ME! proves that augmented reality gaming isn't just a gimmick.
