Way better than Racket:Nx
This game needs a big playspace - but , for me as a 45 year old geeza - this is like being in the future (in the 90s) , when you're in the past :)
Feels like im in a TRON mini game , this is a fantastic game and really gives you a workout with fair and increasing challenge.
No idea why I've got 94 mins clocked, I've put hours in !
8/10 , a fantastic example of a simple concept perfectly executed.
The physics in this game are broken. The ball goes in a random direction whenever the paddle hits it and sometimes the paddle goes straight through the ball. It's not possible to play this game properly as-is. Requested a refund.
Its impressive how badly this game fails at the simplest of things
Volume controls? - nah man, but how about a jump scare every time you enter the main menu
not overdoing it with the controller vibrations? - too easy, how about we just let them vibrate CONSTANTLY ... even in the menu
not breaking the flow of the game? - boring! lets play a short melody, open a pop up and brake down the points the player just made. every. single. time they score a point
and to top it all off: a keyboard on the game over screeen which has to be closed in order to proceed ... but the keyboard does not respond to any input
This is a must own for anyone with a VR set. I absolutely mean that. Essential. That being said, ditch the wrist straps that came with your kit and make your own with some parachute cord. Secure the knots with some superglue or a lighter too. This game will break controllers if you don't.
game is really fun until you get to the harder difficulties and the ball starts going through your racket. it doesn't really matter at first but it is infuriating when you are on the last point of a hard difficulty and you clearly, visually see yourself hit the ball but it just ignores it. maybe worth $5, definitely not worth $15.
Amazingly fun. Got a workout too as an unexpected bonus.
You actually have two paddles, one for each hand... and your computer opponent will fire off comments from time to time.
You do need a bit of space to play this, Be very mindful of your chaperone box. Playable in a 2m square , but a 3mx2m rectangle would be better with plenty of side clearance
This is one of those games I keep coming back to day after day, year after year. I had on the PS4 for PSVR, and I bought it again for this because I love it so much (the roomscale makes it like a completely new game!). After years of playing it, I do find myself maybe wishing there were some more ways to switch up gameplay, but considering what I've paid for it I more than got my money's worth. If you like active games like Beat Saber or any of the ping-pong VR games, I can't recommend this enough. I only ask the devs this: PLEASE INCORPORATE LIV SUPPORT! I want to stream this game in mixed reality so bad, but it's not currently supported :'[
+Cyber Tennis/Ping Pong
+Local/Online Co-op Support
-no player base
-Inconsistant ball that sometimes goes through racket.
2/5
Although this game used to be great, the ball for some reason now constantly goes through the racket, and it's a little buggy. However the dev's seem to have moved onto other things so no update makes this game pretty un-purchasable

This was a decent game back in the day when the Vive was released, but now I would not recommend it. The game mechanics are really dangerous, as you end up diving to get balls right at the edge of your playspace. There are ways to try to mitigate it (ex: setting smaller bounds), but the fast pacing of the game prevents any of them from working 100%. It can be scary watching someone play this!
This is probably one of the absolute riskiest VR games to play, potentially leading to a broken controller or worse (it was common to read horror stories related to this game in the first months after the Vive released). In the last couple of years better racket games have been released with designs that don't present the same risk of collateral damage, so I would suggest going with one of those instead.
If you do choose to play this game, make sure your TV/monitor is behind you, your bounds are set accurately, and your health insurance is paid up!
Get as much space as you can for roomscale and clear the room, this game honestly requires it and is so much more fun that way. It's right up there with Racket NX. This game gives you more of a workout because you are moving around more, but Racket NX has more variety in the gameplay and more finesse. You can't go wrong with either one and I recommend both.

This game is extremely fun, challenging and gets you moving. Many people compare it to CyberPong and, having played its demo, I can honestly say that this game is better.
The main problem with CyberPong, compared to this, is that here the ball actually responds to how quickly you hit it. In CyberPong, the ball goes at the same speed most of the time. In multiplayer, it just speeds up over the course of the point, but gently tapping it has the same result as hitting it with force. Here, you can feel the momentum of your bat/racket/thing getting transferred to the ball. The ball even curves if you hit it right. There is also a subtle vibration as you move your controller, making it feel as though you are actually holding a lightsaber! The music is fantastic and fits very well into the theme of the game, and the visuals make you feel as though you stepped into Tron: Legacy. This is further augmented by what the AI (your opponent) says: things like "next human please" if you lose and "this may be a quirk of the reality we graced you with" if you score a point. Kinda reminds me of GLaDOS, honestly.
To conclude, this game is super fun to play (it kinda feels like a workout after longer sessions) and its atmosphere is spot on. I can't wait for things like multiplayer to be added (which IS listed in the Coming Soon section in the description, which is nice).
If this review sounded like an essay, I'm sorry, it's the middle of Exam Week.
Physical game that gives you a great workout! Really intense at higher difficulty. One of the most fun vr-games so far imo. It's immersive and the sense of scale is amazing. The graphics and sound fits well.
I found the AI-trash talking a bit annoying, but it's possible to disable in the menu, thankfully.
Highly recommended!
Checklist for successful videogame:
-Evil computer seeking annihilation of humans.
-Awesome soundtrack reminiscent of Tron: Legacy.
-Acid trip visuals.
-Addictive gameplay.
Holoball has all of this and much more. Put some hair on your chest, buy this game with your currency of choice, and challenge the sadistic computer at a fine game of VR Pong.
I give this game a "Vive must own/ 11."
At the moment of this review i give it a 7/10 not because the game suck , but because it lacks content, Theres only one environment and all the modes pretty much feels the same. if you looking to sweat a little or alot, this game for $10 is worth it and if you can get it on sale, its a must buy
You will have more fun, feel more immerse and have a better workout if you have a big play area because you can do full swings like in tennis and not have to worry about running into things, also change out the wrist strap that comes with the vive controller with something stronger like the nintendo Wii wrist strap, the ones that comes with the vive is super thin and weak.
The way the vive controller is designed, the handle tapers down and it has little to no grip on it, especially when you have sweaty palms, doing fast,full hard swing can cause it to fly off your hands and into the wall,floor or your expensive TV
Of all the early VR experiences out there, I keep coming back to this one. I'm not particularly masterful at any sport (real or otherwise), but this feels well-balanced. I am currently just about beating the computer on Medium every time and now am ready to try Hard. I've found myself gloating at the AI player after a nailing particularly good serve or offhand smash (which includes pointing my right-hand paddle at it and saying "HA F**K YOU LOSER!") and the feeling of personal shame when you fluff a particularly simple shot still gets me.
Some quick tips:
- Be mindful of where BOTH paddles are. A couple of times I've tried a backhand and my off-hand has gotten in the way and rebounded the ball back through my own goal.
- You can tee up the ball on the serve before smashing it. Makes nailing Aces much more likely (my best is 4 in a row). I can foresee that, with practice, I could start to Roddick the crap out of this and hit them every time).
- Low returns are a bitch. Be prepared to get down low and deflect them back defensively.
- Don't be afraid of your weaker hand - you might actually find that your % success rate is better as you'll hit so many more across to the other side of the goal and the AI might not make it in time.
I'm looking forward to seeing where this games goes. Oh and the setting just works. Get ready for a Blood-Dragon-Pong-Tron-Athon.
10/10 would swear at my dining room wall again.
I'm a casual racquet ball/tennis player, and after the update this game is now better than ever.
Before the update, this was a great game. The core game was solid, but my only gripe was that each shot felt more like a ricochet rather than an actual swing. When I would serve the ball with all my might, sometimes it'd be a cannon, and sometimes it'd be a dud. You'd get a lucky defensive shot ricochet with power into the AI's sweet spot. You really just had to make contact to stay competitive with expert AI.
Since the update, ALL these problems have been resolved. EVERY Time I serve, it zooms across the court like I intended. Also, those fast serves get a FAST return volley. If you serve with power, be prepared to react within a split second. Now my defensive shots are slow and easy for the AI to pick up. Against harder AI, you truly have to earn each point and smash the ball into their sweet spot.
It also now gives you a warning to use your wrist straps and perhaps replace your Vive straps with Wii straps. I am a victim of Vive straps breaking off, causing the controller to fly into the wall. You do not want a $110 repair bill from HTC support. Trust me.
Great game: A must buy for racquet ball, tennis, squash players, or anyone with a mild interest in racquet sports really.
HOLOlujah! This game is BALLer!
Imagine if the original 1974 Pong, had a baby with a colorful, virtual 3-Dimensional environment. Then, that child grew up, and had a baby with the classic indoor sport of racquetball. That wonderful, miracle, of a baby, is named; HoloBall!
HoloBall is a competitive sport-like game in which takes place in what appears to be a neon version of a racquetball court. The goal is to win against a snarky, sarcastic, comedic AI, and attempting to get the highscore to get your name up on the leaderboard. Doing so, immenses a challenge and a great amount of fun! The different difficulty levels, really help to match your level of skill. The harder the difficulty, the larger the court and the smaller the ball. The racket has perfect physics! It feels all so very natural swinging at the ball attempting to get it passed the AI. Not only is this game a large amount of fun, its a great workout too if you really get into it!
I highly recommend purchasing this game for anyone who even has a slight interest in; Racquetball, Tennis, or even the original Pong.
Warning: DON'T LET GO OF YOUR CONTROLLER! (Racket)
Oh my god this game is amazing.
Pros: I lived long enough to see the future
Cons: All of my furniture is now in the kitchen.
Second killer app for the Vive. This is awesome! The 80s retro theme is so perfect. I found myself shouting at the AI for hitting my car. I loved that car man! Get this game!
