The Catapult

About

The Catapult casts you as a defender in a medieval siege battle. You operate a rudimentary catapult and coordinate archers to repel waves of stick-figure enemies. The controls are straightforward in VR, grip, pull, launch, and the action leans into chaotic, physics-driven humor. Each volley sends rocks and arrows arcing through the air, with enemies tumbling off castle walls in exaggerated fashion. The single-player campaign focuses on survival, balancing resource management with quick reflexes. The game’s charm lies in its simplicity. It strips away complexity for pure arcade-style mayhem, and the stick-figure aesthetic keeps the tone lighthearted. Early reviews note it’s a brief but satisfying distraction for VR owners looking for something goofy and easy to pick up. Some players call it “the VR game you play with your friends’ avatars,” thanks to its shareable moments of destruction. No deep strategy here, but the physics-based combat and escalating enemy waves deliver consistent, if short-lived, fun.
