About Acron: Attack of the Squirrels!
Acron: Attack of the Squirrels! is a multiplayer party game where one player in VR becomes a protective tree and up to eight friends join on free iOS or Android apps as squirrels. The tree uses hand controllers to grab and hurl wood, boulders and sticky sap, while squirrels employ distinct tools to steal golden acorns.
The title is localized into ten languages and offers eight natural‑world levels, ranging from nighttime glades to sunlit streams. It blends competitive and cooperative moments, encouraging a couch‑party atmosphere where VR and mobile players interact in real time.

Supported Languages
The game provides full localization in English, Spanish, German, French, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese. The game is available in these ten languages, letting players worldwide enjoy it in their preferred language.
With the game localized across platforms, teammates using different devices can select the language that works best for their group, which helps keep communication clear during fast‑paced matches.
- Set the language before launching to match the majority of your group.
- If a teammate struggles, temporarily switch to a common language for the match.

Cross‑Platform Multiplayer
One player uses a VR headset with hand controllers to control the tree, while one to eight other players download a free companion app for iOS or Android and join as squirrels. All participants connect online, enabling real‑time interaction between the tree and the squirrels.
The mode is described as both competitive and cooperative, meaning the tree may work with some squirrels while opposing others, and the squirrels can coordinate their abilities to achieve the shared goal of stealing acorns.
- Verify that every mobile device has the free app installed before creating a lobby.
- Run a short test match to confirm latency is acceptable for all players.

Tree Player Mechanics
The VR player assumes the role of a tree that guards the golden acorns. Using tracked hand controllers, the tree can grab and hurl wood chunks, boulders and sticky sap toward approaching squirrels.
These throws are performed with physical gestures, giving the tree a tactile way to block, push back or trap squirrels as they attempt to reach the acorns in each level.
- Practice the throwing motion in an open area to improve accuracy.
- Prioritize larger objects like boulders for squirrels that get very close.

Squirrel Characters
Mobile players choose from four squirrels, each with a signature tool: Zip runs fastest, Chunk carries a protective shield, Doug digs tunnels for underground travel, and Sim builds ramps for vertical movement. These tools shape how each squirrel approaches the acorn theft.
Because each ability addresses a different aspect of movement or defense, teams can mix characters to cover speed, protection, subterranean routes and height, creating varied strategies for retrieving acorns.
- Combine Zip’s speed with Sim’s ramps for rapid vertical escapes.
- Use Doug’s tunnels to bypass the tree’s line of sight when approaching the acorns.

Levels and Environments
Eight distinct levels place the action in varied natural settings, such as nighttime glades, sunlit streams and sulky swamps. Each environment provides visual variety and may affect how objects like wood chunks or sap appear.
While the source does not detail gameplay effects, the differing backdrops give players a sense of progression and can influence visibility and spatial awareness for both tree and squirrels.
- Observe lighting changes; darker areas can make projectiles harder to see.
- Look for natural features that might block or guide thrown objects.
