Plan your next VR Giants session
Our independent guide breaks down VR Giants’ core cooperative mechanics, giant states, and environmental challenges. By observing how each element interacts, you can streamline communication, reduce trial‑and‑error, and enjoy the game’s teamwork focus without relying on undocumented tricks.
01 / THE GUIDE
Button Timing Practice
Run a short session where the tiny player repeatedly presses a button while the giant waits. Note how slight delays shift the giant’s placement and adjust your verbal cues accordingly.
- Agree on a simple cue like “now” before each button press to keep timing clear.
- Keep a short verbal check after each move to confirm the giant is where both players expect.
02 / THE GUIDE
State Comparison Test
Create three simple scenarios, one for each giant state. Compare how Solid, Temporary, and Fire Goliath affect the reachable area and which puzzles each best supports.
- Use Solid Goliath when a lasting platform is needed for the tiny player.
- When using Fire Goliath, keep the tiny player away from wooden objects.
03 / THE GUIDE
Environment Walk‑Through
Spend a few minutes exploring each setting—desert, iceberg, lava cave, pasture—without solving puzzles. Identify visual landmarks that signal where the tiny player should stand or where the giant can act.
- Observe the layout of each environment before activating any buttons.
- Prioritize clearing obstacles that block the path to the sheep.
04 / THE GUIDE
Play‑Area Safety Drill
Before a full game, rehearse kneeling, rising, and shifting within the cleared 2 m × 2 m space. This helps the VR player stay within safe bounds and reduces fatigue.
- Clear the play area of any obstacles before starting.
- Take short breaks if the VR player feels any fatigue.

Remote Collaboration Check
Use Remote Play Together to let a distant friend control the tiny player. Test voice chat latency and note any timing adjustments needed for smooth button activation.
- Use shared/split‑screen mode if only one headset is available.
- Try Remote Play Together to let a distant friend control the tiny player.
