A cardboard death-trap experienced at guinea-pig scale: one evening of room-scale VR that trades puzzle depth for physical nerve, and gets out before the joke goes stale.

If I Expect You To Die is a seated spy fantasy where the room comes to you, Kartong flips it: you're shrunk to guinea-pig size and made to walk, duck and reach through a cardboard death-trap built by someone with a mean sense of humor. Room-scale is the point. The hazards want you physically leaning and crouching around them rather than solving things from a chair, and the handcrafted look (tape, corrugated edges, hand-drawn signage) makes every threat read instantly without a tutorial prompt. It's an evening, maybe two, and it knows that. Sixty-odd Steam reviews is thin coverage for something this specific. The physics puzzles lean more on nerve and hand placement than logic, so anyone hunting genuine head-scratchers will find it slight, and the dark comedy repeats itself once you've died the same way three times. But the miniature scale is quietly magic, and it ends before the joke wears out. Kai, Scout Team

GamerScout Verdict

Best for room-scale VR owners wanting one sharp, handcrafted evening rather than a puzzle box to chew on.

Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.

Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.

We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.
