We Tried Climbing a MOUNTAIN in VR...

Summary

Zulushi and his friend SoulFox set out to climb the biggest mountain in Bad Grip Club VR. Their route takes them over narrow ledges, shaky bridges, rope swings, and zip lines as they manage survival needs and try not to fall.

They discover that the first mountain is essentially a tutorial. After collecting two of five artifacts, they continue to a second mountain, where they face a much bigger threat: a fast, aggressive bear.

The climb is a mix of cooperation and chaos. The pair help pull each other up, search for food and supplies, and find places to rest or revive fallen teammates. They also test assorted items, including a broom, wand, and gun, with mixed results. After one player falls back to the bottom and needs reviving, they eventually reach an evacuation area and a plane. Before leaving, they joke around with food and take a dip in the lava-like water.

Gameplay Highlights and Tips

• Watch stamina and hunger: Climbing drains stamina, while the yellow bar indicates hunger. Carry food in your inventory, opened with B.
• Choose food carefully: Some items, such as spicy peppers, may be a bad choice. The players also find fruit and other supplies along the way.
• Use teamwork: Players can help pull each other up and revive one another at designated spots.
• Take care on crossings: Bridges and ropes can wobble or behave unpredictably. Move carefully and watch out for dangerous drops.
• Treat bears as a serious hazard: The bear is fast, and approaching it is dangerous. The players’ takeaway: don’t touch it.
• Keep exploring: Supplies and special items are scattered along the way, and the first mountain is only the beginning of the climb.
