Fantastic Contraption started life as a non-VR game in 2008, and since then, players have saved more than 12 million strange and useful contraptions. Things will probably get even more wild with the fresh perspective offered by the Vive. Plus, just listen to those sound effects -- they're packed with satisfying pops and pulls.

We recently took the Vive for a spin at home and found it to be, in a word, magnificent.
