Technical aspects

Tin Hearts is an original puzzle game in which we guide toy soldiers through dangerous locations. The title was created with virtual reality technology in mind. Rogue Sun, an independent debut studio, is responsible for its creation.

Mechanics

The gameplay in Tin Hearts is a bit like what we know from the popular Lemmings series. The player watches the marching characters and their task is to lead the soldiers safely to their destination by interacting with the environment. What makes Rogue Sun's production unique is the support for virtual reality technology - thanks to it, the player has the impression that they are really in a given place and physically touches objects.

Nintendo Life: 8 / 10 by Oliver Reynolds

Tin Hearts is a lovely little puzzler that's engaging and emotional in equal measure. It takes all the right inspiration from Lemmings but manages to stand on its own two feet with a unique visual style, clever mechanics, and a wonderful narrative told effortlessly during gameplay. Technical hiccups pull it back from true greatness, including a choppy frame rate and jarring camera movements, but if you're after a relaxing puzzler that's not too taxing on the ol' noggin, then you really can't go too wrong with this.

Pure Nintendo: 7.5 / 10 by Kirk Hiner

Tin Hearts offers puzzle gamers a touching story and plenty of challenges across its 40+ levels, some of which are quite lengthy and rewarding. However, user interface issues, inconsistent graphics, and a few odd development decisions make toy time a little less fun than it could have been.

GamesCreed: 4.3 / 5 by Junior Onunkwo

The magical and emotional story, along with the puzzles and the Christmas-themed designs, is something that any child will love. But as an adult, Tin Hearts can definitely make you feel like a kid again. But I’m not so keen on that. It looks like once you’ve started the story, you cannot start over the game until you’ve finished the entire campaign. This isn’t necessarily a problem worth stressing, but for a few reasons, you might want to start from the beginning, regardless of how far you progress.
