Genre: Puzzle

Platform: VR (Meta Quest, PCVR)

Target Audience: 5D Jenga VR is designed for players looking for tension, skill, and strategy in virtual reality. The idea is to combine physical precision with time and multiverse mechanics. It's an ideal game for those who want a different challenge than classic Jenga and enjoy planning moves in multiple dimensions simultaneously.

Game Description: 5D Jenga takes the classic board game and transforms it into virtual reality, but goes beyond simple block balancing. Here, there's not just one 3D tower, but several that exist in different times and realities. Every move has consequences in more than one dimension, making strategy key in each game.

The game design is based on levels that the player can choose, each with a different challenge:

• Classic Tower: At the beginning, the player faces a traditional Jenga tower in VR. Here, they learn to manipulate blocks with precision.

• Future Tower: The player selects a block they want to remove, and the future tower shows a possible scenario if it is removed carefully. This tower can show risks such as micro-collapses.

o It's important to note that the future tower acts as a guide or clue. If it collapses, the game is not lost, but it is a warning that the block is risky.

• Parallel Towers: In more advanced levels, additional towers appear around the player. Some pieces are connected, so moving one in one tower automatically affects another. Each parallel tower has physical variations such as micro-collapses, interlocking blocks, or Interlocking critical blocks, requiring planning in several at the same time.

• 5D Challenge: In the most difficult stages, present, future, and parallel towers are combined. Keeping them all in balance requires precision, strategy, and anticipation at a multiversal level.

Objective: Keep all towers in balance at the same time. If the current tower or one of the parallel towers falls, the game is lost. The future tower does not cause defeat, as its function is only to serve as a guide.

Implemented Block Variations:

• Micro-Collapse: This happens when you move a block and it slightly displaces nearby blocks. This can cause a domino effect and destabilize the tower.

• Interlocking Blocks: They are connected to another tower. When moved, they automatically affect that other tower. This forces you to consider moves that affect multiple towers at the same time.

o Only on parallel towers and 5D Challenger.

• Interlocking Critical Blocks: These are a combination of interlocking Blocks and micro-collapse. If you move them, they not only disrupt other towers but can also cause collapses within the current tower. This increases the difficulty and requires more careful planning.

o Only on parallel towers and 5D Challenge.

• Variable Weight: Some blocks weigh more or less, which changes the physics when moved. This only applies to parallel towers and the current tower.
