At Virtual Room, we take you on journeys through virtual worlds created by our production team, but we also love to test virtual reality games. That’s why for this article, we’ve prepared a top 5 list of our favorite VR games. And because we love sharing our thoughts, we’ve explained why we love them so much.
SUPERHOT VR
SUPERHOT VR is a first-person virtual reality shooter game. In this white-themed world, you will have to eliminate all your enemies using various weapons. These enemies, entirely made of red crystal, are all identical and shatter like glass when hit, avoiding any bloodshed. But the game’s greatest feature lies not in its targets to be taken down but rather in its gameplay. Indeed, time only moves forward when you move, adding a spectacular dimension to the game. At times, overwhelmed from all sides with a overwhelming number of enemies charging at you, you’ll need to strategize and handle combat in slow motion to successfully take down all your targets. SUPERHOT provides a highly unusual virtual reality experience for a shooter, capable of making you lose touch with reality.
Why we love it: because the mechanics in SUPERHOT are very engaging compared to other shooters, and managing movement, time, and the environment adds a significant edge to the game.
A Fisherman’s Tale
With A Fisherman’s Tale, you embark directly on an extraordinary adventure, embodying a small puppet fisherman named Bob. The storm is coming, and you’ll need to climb all the way to the top of the lighthouse to turn on the light. But the world you’re about to face is not at all what you might expect. Indeed, in this game, you’ll be breaking the laws of physics to solve mind-bending puzzles in virtual reality. Cooperate with yourself using your lighthouse model that reflects your reality! Make surprising encounters and uncover the truth behind this story! A Fisherman’s Tale is a game that will certainly surprise you while immersing you in a slightly magical atmosphere.
Why we love it: for its impressive gameplay mechanics, stunning graphics, and the beauty of the game and the story of this little puppet, which we find very touching.
Beat Saber
Beat Saber is a virtual reality game where the goal is to slice through the rhythm of the music represented by small cubes coming towards you in your headset. Propelled onto a grand musical track with cubes sliding towards you, you’ll need masterful coordination to slice the colored cubes with the correct saber and in the right direction, all while navigating around obstacles! With its impressive music repertoire, you’ll have plenty to keep you entertained and never get bored! Beat Saber is a game that knows how to set the mood and will make you dance to the rhythm of its music. It’s impossible not to get completely immersed in the game, with mechanics reminiscent of the famous Fruit Ninja.
Beat Saber also offers a multiplayer mode for you to challenge your friends. Almost face-to-face on two tracks, you’ll have the opportunity to compete on the same music and see who achieves the highest score. Several difficulty levels are offered to spice up the game.
Why we love it: for the engaging and sometimes frenetic rhythm of the songs offered by Beat Saber, and for the opportunity to show an opponent how well we can keep the beat in multiplayer mode.
I Expect You To Die
With I Expect You To Die, you step directly into the shoes of a secret agent whose goal is to survive dangerous situations akin to James Bond. Escape from a car in a crashing plane or infiltrate a laboratory to thwart Dr. Zor, the supervillain of the game. Equipped with a state-of-the-art telekinetic chip implanted in you, you’ll be able to control objects remotely and become a super spy. However, be sure to carry out your missions with style and strategy because it’s possible you might succumb to a bomb blast, gas effects, or a poorly placed gunshot…
Why we love it: because it combines the mechanics of an escape game with virtual reality, and enjoying a glass of champagne while stuck in a critical situation is quite appealing to us.
Sport Scramble
Plongez dans le monde incroyable de Sport Scramble et devenez un athlète de renom. With this completely wild virtual reality game, you’ll have the opportunity to take all your favorite sports and mix them up for even crazier combinations. Play tennis with a ping pong paddle and a fish as the ball, score a strike in bowling with a pineapple, or hit a magnificent home run in baseball using a hockey stick—the possibilities are endless.
Have a great time with friends in multiplayer mode, challenge each other to win a trophy, and become the best player. Laughs and surprises are guaranteed because it’s impossible to predict the outcome of the game in advance or how our tennis racket or bowling ball might transform!
Why we love it: for the completely wild tennis or bowling games you can play solo or with a friend in multiplayer, and because honestly, who hasn’t dreamed of playing tennis with a golf club and a basketball?
