Game Overview
A ruined children’s television studio becomes a surprisingly nasty VR playground where failed puppetry, occult mistakes, and abandoned-set nostalgia collide. You play a college reporter investigating the 1986 fire that erased Mortimer’s Handeemen, only to find the show’s cast stalking the scorched warehouse long after the cameras stop rolling. Horror sits beside deliberately absurd comedy: one moment is built around grim corridors and jump scares, while the next has a foul-mouthed hand puppet mocking your panic. The result feels like a warped Saturday-morning show rediscovered in the worst possible condition.
Your left hand is occupied by Scout, a sentient puppet who claims she is only marginally less monstrous than the enemies pursuing you. Escaping requires searching detailed rooms, manipulating physical VR objects, interpreting environmental clues, and solving puzzles that depend on cooperating with her. Scout reacts to how you handle and speak to her, giving the companion dynamic more personality than a typical stream of scripted hints. At key points, Puppet Mode lets you inhabit Scout’s smaller body, changing your viewpoint and opening up alternate paths, hidden information, and puzzle solutions that a human-sized player cannot reach. The rhythm alternates between tense chases, atmospheric investigation, and hands-on brainteasers rather than relying entirely on combat.
What makes Hello Puppets! VR memorable is its use of virtual reality to make a companion feel physically present—and inconveniently attached to you. Scout is not a cute mascot or a dependable partner; her sarcasm, grudges, and uneasy alliance give even routine puzzle rooms a sharp comedic edge. Beneath the jokes, collectible lore and the studio’s unsettling history build a larger mystery around the puppets and the fire. Players who enjoy the escape-room problem solving of I Expect You To Die but want a stranger, scarier tone will find plenty to like, while horror veterans should appreciate its creepy set design and unpredictable puppet antagonists. It works best for VR players comfortable with jump scares and willing to engage with its peculiar humor.
