Petricore, a Massachusetts-based tech & XR software company, has released its latest game on Meta Horizon. It’s called Room Rush, which is their first mobile Horizon World created in collaboration with Meta.
Room Rush is like Dress to Impress, but for houses
There’s home makeover, VR and reality TV, all mixed together. What else can you ask for? Basically, the title draws inspiration from titles like Dress to Impress, but the concept here is interior design.
The premise frames players as contestants on a fictional house-building TV program. The opening moments take place in a waiting room that also serves as a tutorial hub.
From there, you can wander through a sample showroom. There, you get a feel for how furniture snapping, prop placement, and control interactions work before entering the main stage.
Once the round begins, teams are split up and assigned different rooms and themes. There are categories that swing from everyday aesthetics like Modern and Gamer to more eccentric prompts such as Haunted, Mismatched, and Hoarders. There are also rounds where the entire objective is to cram the space with as many chairs as possible.
The build phase revolves around four colour-coded kiosks set in the middle of the stage. Each one supplies objects that match a team’s assigned colour. However, you get limited time, a limited number of items to place, and only one object to carry at a time.

Once the timer expires, it’s time for judging
Teams parade through their finished rooms for 25 seconds, while every other group scores the designs from 1 to 5 stars, much like in DTI. The winning teams get a stash of Stars, the in-game currency.
At launch, Room Rush features 25 total furniture packs and 5 room style packs. You get a lineup of decor categories that range from Minimalist to Maximalist. The game supports up to 12 people at once.
A home makeover contest that gives players only minutes to prove they can decorate under pressure. Is it something you’d like to try? Then get the Meta Horizons mobile app.
