The gameplay is fast-paced and engaging, featuring a unique blend of hover-bike maneuvering and grappling mechanics reminiscent of Rocket League. Players can easily grasp the controls, but some reviewers noted a lack of depth and variety in mechanics, which can lead to a stagnant experience over time. While the multiplayer aspect is exciting, its success hinges on a robust player base to avoid empty servers.
“The gameplay is fast-paced and involves maneuvering the hover-bike with your left hand with the option to use power-ups and boosts to control the speed, jumping, whilst simultaneously using a powerful hook gun with your right hand to carry the ball to the opponent's goal to score.”
“What it does feel like is a real-life dodgem car game where you have a grappling hook to grab the ball and run with it football style, with the car controlled by a joystick (which feels pretty spot on) and a very clever mechanic where you can grab floaty things in the air to change your momentum in a certain direction.”
“Snatchers is definitely a game where you will think you'll maybe play one match but then the next time you look at your clock an hour has just slipped right by because it sunk its claws into you and engrossed you in its fun and unique gameplay that you'll soon find that you just can't get enough of.”
“The gameplay feels very rough at its current stage; there's no floating reticle, so unless you are already aimed correctly at the ball, you don't see the reticle for aiming.”
“There's not many VR games that can manage this level of competitive gameplay, but being a multiplayer-only VR game means that unless it's popular, you're looking at empty servers.”
“While I did not get sick, I did get dizzy a couple of times and almost fell on my first gameplay.”
