BullyBall
At the end of the day your opinion of ‘BullyBall’ isn’t going to be down to the game as such, more your opinion of what you expect when you pay just £1.69 for a game. This bow and arrow game sees you shooting balls that are constantly moving towards you. You get a lot of healthy hearts at the start of the game and the chance to win more in terms of powerups. But that is it. The ball are flat 2D items and there is literally nothing else to this game other than a high score. I get that £1.69 isn’t a lot of money, but even at that price point, I wish this game was free. I simply can’t recommend this one at the moment, but with some improvements maybe that will change.

Arrow Ventura VR
What is ARROW VENTURA?
Well, Arrow Ventura is a roguelike VR game in a fantastic universe. You slay from little monsters to challenging bosses with your bow, axe and with your mighty hammer (I’m not even joking, is Thor’s hammer). With every wave you get stronger and stronger, get more perks and more passive abilities.
Features
-
creative perks and passives that synergies between them
-
various weapons & crazy weapons to slay them all
Story
The story is that…there’s no story; you are stranded in an adventure with your bow and your little friend (spoiler, you’ll have a companion)…and you don’t need for some arbitrary reason to kill all the enemies that attack your castle (well you don’t own it, the castle is a rental)..the truth is that is way to fun to slay the little monsters

Cutie Bear
This is my first negative review, and I’m really sad that it has to be this game. This game looks really good, the physics are ok, the graphics are just fine, the music is a little meh, but tolerable, and the controls aren’t clunky. This is exactly the type of platformer that I would really enjoy under normal circumstances. But the game is also absolutely relentless and unfair.
I found a way to get an infinite amount of lives (and even made a guide about it, check it out if you still decide to try out this game), and suffice it to say, 200 lives weren’t enough for me to beat the game (I don’t even know how close I was to achieve this, cos I just decided to quit).

QuiVr
73 hours of play.
By far the most played vive game I own and I have over 70 titles.
The game was certainly addictive from first picking up the controllers.
Ive aquired every item the game has to offer, which is around 10 pieces of equipment.
I know the devs are active in this game, I feel it would befeit replayability to add some more
item/skill game content for the fans that have supported this game this long. Like 10 new items with abilities, playing the
same map over and over again. Im finding myself going back to this game less often. The most addicting thing about

UPDATE: The Discord community for this game is amazing! The developer, Blueteak, had us racing to unlock secrets/easter eggs in the game. This is a signal of great things to come.
I downloaded this game right when the early alpha was released, was impressed with the bow mechanics, escalation of wave difficulty, and enemy variety. After the early access version released, I immediately bought QuiVr, and it quickly became the game I think about when I’m not in VR, alongside Arizona Sunshine.
I do miss many of the enemy types they had in the early alpha, but chose to scrap for the paid early access version. However, the ability to close more gates beyond the one directly guarding your keep, while strategically using the magic abilities (throwing fireballs, chain lightning, slow time bubble, etc.) attached to your gear is why I keep coming back for a few rounds every day! I love the Diablo 3-esque feature of being able to “re-roll” the mods on your items in hopes of getting the best quality version in the range of possibilities. There is hardly anything more satisfying in VR than judging an enemy’s run speed from hundreds of yards out, and connecting on that nearly impossible shot!

Equip yourself and battle your way to the bottom of the caverns by surviving a challenging series of ever evolving dungeons filled with dangerous foes and fearsome bosses.
BASIC ROGUE
I’m in a Discord call with two buddies sharing strats and trying to figure out how to get further. Got my money’s worth in 15 minutes.
Edit after 5 hours:
Game remains incredibly fun, there are definitely some aspects that could use polish but the developer has been very open to feedback and is doing a nice job of updating the game with new features. 10/10 would recommend.

This game is shockingly fun. Of course, I raised Constitution as much as possible to get my armour to 100%, and I got my fighting up to legendary+3, so I didn’t have anything to worry about except for finding those leylines.
All in all: Well worth the $3 and the 10MB.
Also: You can pick up doors and put them back down! You can basically make a base if you wanna!

In Death
In Death is a ridiculously difficult archery-based procedurally-generated dungeon-crawler - asking price imo is worth every of your country’s smallest denomination coin.
After ~4oo+ hours of play, In Death may be my favorite video game ever. I am surprised to be writing that. I have ~4 decades of video game indulgence, I’ve seen quite a lot. I rank this alongside Doom & tempest, which I enjoy because of their difficulty.
In Death exposed the limits of vive 1.o tracking - 2.o tracking & wireless headset seem almost requisite

Highlights:
-
Best VR game I own
-
Unique setting, fantastic graphics, immersive sound design, addictive gameplay

Closest thing to a Dark Souls VR you’ll find
Specs: Vive/Roomscale/i7-7700K/1080ti/32GB
Disclosure: Beta test participant since mid-December. I revoked the Steam key and purchased the Early Access version so my review would count in Steam rankings.
Review:
I normally don’t post reviews, but the quality of this game deserves it. I have a modest VR library (50 or so titles) with an FPS bias. I’ve spent far more hours playing In Death than any other title I own … and that’s just the beta version. In my view, the gameplay is already mostly perfected and all that is needed is level content.
