Gorilla Tag
Gorilla Tag is a fast-paced, social VR game where players run, climb, and tag others using a unique hand-based movement system.
Overview
Gorilla Tag is a wildly popular VR experience that throws out traditional controls and lets you move like a real gorilla. There are no joysticks, teleportation, or artificial movement. Instead, you push off surfaces, grab ledges, and climb using your own arms. This creates gameplay that feels chaotic, hilarious, and surprisingly competitive once you get the hang of it.
Movement-Driven Action
Movement is the heart of Gorilla Tag. You don’t walk—you launch yourself. You don’t climb—you scramble. Learning how to chain jumps, wall pushes, and tree climbs is essential for surviving chases and catching other players. Skilled movement turns every map into a massive parkour playground.
Objectives
Gorilla Tag doesn’t use traditional missions. Your goals change depending on the game mode. Sometimes you’re escaping lava gorillas, sometimes you’re hunting a specific target, and other times you’re working with a team to win a paintball-style battle. Each match feels different and creates its own memorable moments.
