If smashing up a castle then sucking up coins sounds fun to you then Smash Hit Plunder will be a welcome fit for your VR library.

Don't get me wrong. Smash Hit Plunder is an extremely entertaining game. However, if you're playing the game in single-player exclusively, expect to get burned out rather swiftly. Unfortunately, aside from keeping onlookers busy, the social screen mechanics don't deliver much more than an interactive distraction until they get their next turn under the visor. While I can guarantee that everyone will get some enjoyment from this rambunctious romp, depending upon how you consume the game, your mileage may vary.

The new PlayStation VR game Smash Hit Plunder is a fine diversion, but the game lacks depth and has some considerable navigation control issues.
