Tin Hearts is a charming Lemmings spiritual successor with a moving story that's perfectly presented with gorgeous visuals and relaxing music. The few bugs and frame rate issues aren’t enough to prevent us recommending this excellent title. This isn’t one to march on by.

Tin Hearts is a perfect little puzzler to dive into if you like clever puzzles, touching narratives, and charming Victorian settings. However, the controls aren't always great, which may frustrate you more often than you'd like.
NintendoWorldReport: 8.5 / 10 by John Rairdin
They're not unfairly obtuse while also still offering a solid challenge. The opening stages don't show the game in its best light right away, but once things get moving Tin Hearts is difficult to put down. A few minor technical and user interface issues caused some brief stumbling but rarely put a damper on my enjoyment.
Tin Hearts Description
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.
Game modes
Tin Hearts offers only single-player mode.
Technical aspects
Tin Hearts has pleasant 3D graphics. The audio-visual setting does a good job of transferring the player to a friendly, colourful world. The game supports HTC Vive and Oculus Rift goggles.
