Paradiddle
This is what other VR drumming apps should have been. I’ve tried a bunch of them and they all left me craving for a better option. This might me the one for me!
It is fully customizable:
- You can add the drums you want in the virtual space, resize them how you want and place them where you want! If you’re an experienced drummer you can recreate your own kit accurately, and if you’re a beginner and don’t know where to start you can use one of the presets or recreate very quickly your favourite drummer’s kit.

I just picked this up a couple days ago. Put in 3.4 hours so far and loving it. I’m a complete novice and while the game does not contain a tutorial itself it is still an amazing learning tool.
I used OVR Drop to bring in a youtube window to a show a beginner drum turorial to play along with - this works great! In a short amount of time I was able to learn a straight rock beat with high-hat, snare and base drum. It felt awesome.
Even though you don’t get the feedback of hitting a real surface, it still feels like you are playing the drums and certainly the timing and spacial aspects would transfer to real life. I’m looking forward to learning more and getting better.

Space Dance Harmony
This game is truely early access in that there’s about 1/10th of the content that needs to be in a full release.
But what is there is very polished and feels great. They could have a hit on their hands if they deliver but I’ve been burned so many times by games like this that are strong out of the gate and never get a single update so we shall see.
Worst case scenario current state is a pretty decent to pick up and play game for a quick intense warm up workout. So for me it’s a keeper.

this is realy good! the danceinstructor realy knows how to move, the moves are well varied and match the music. as a non-dancer, i was very suprised about how different all the songs dancemoves are from each other. it is nothing like beatsaber where you just stand there and hit random boxes with a stick.
im not good with music classification, i would just call it feelgood-music. ;)
i just know its not something i usualy listen to, yet enjoy immensely while playing SDH.
there is a tutorial so you dont have to guess what you are supposed to do and what stuff means.

Paranormal Detective: Escape from the 80’s
Nice puzzle game. If you’ve played other escape room type games, you’ll like this. Lots of 80’s references and humor throughout. I had to refer to a walk through twice: once for something I should have picked up on but the other was something I may have eventually stumbled upon what they were expecting you to do (tip: just play with everything extensively!)
Looking forward to the 90’s sequel, which is already waiting in my wish list.

This game is totally RADICAL DUDE! Just played through and I loved it. Great escape room elements with so much 80s. Such cheesy acting and there is even a rap to dance to. Don’t want to give away too much. Took me about 2 hours to complete. I did search pretty thoroughly for Easter eggs and such.
The game nailed what is wrong with so many escape games.
-
It has a great, fun story! This is lacking in so many.
-
Everything is polished and works well! (surprisingly hard to find)
-
A great length! I have played waaaay too many 15 to 20 minute experiences. This took me well over an hour to explore, complete the puzzles, and complete the end.

Detective Butler: Maiden Voyage Murder
Nice detective kinetic novel for one or two afternoons I guess (yeah, there are actually no choices at all) and one that is completely FREE at that. It’s full of overused tropes and it doesn’t take itself seriously at times but I certainly wouldn’t call it bad either as it leaves some food for the thought in the end, so it’s probably somewhere in between.
So yeah - it was enjoyable yet also flawed experience for me. Women characters here are mostly likeable and detailed but all man except captain and protagonist father would benefited from more developement. The pacing was actually pretty good but the mystery was maybe way too easy for me as I guessed the culprit and how everything happend right after the murder happened. Which is good and bad at the same time but thankfully the rest of the story was interesting to follow at least. But the main flaws were probably both main characters - detective Butler and main character (Golder’s son) unfortunately.

Excellent! A free murder mystery visual novel. It’s apparently the first part of Misadventures of Detective Butler series. Originally released in 2013 and then got onto Steam in 2017 with some edits and improvements. I liked this a lot. Has a lot of personal moments and mystery itself is fairly interesting. Albeit I really would like to force detective to grow some beard first. You don’t get to choose anything in a game, which is shame, as I think they could at least test us with picking a suspect at the end of a game. But hey, at least it gives enough clues to solve it fairly before the murderer is revealed.

PowerBeatsVR - VR Fitness
Updated Review:
I’ve had this game since April and I still play it 5 times a week.
Pros:
*It is one hell of a full body workout. You will be lunging, crouching, punching, reaching, dodging, and just all around moving
*It is fun, not quite as fun as beat saber, but it is significantly more fun than BoxVR
*The developers are out-freaking-standing. They are the most responsive devs I have ever seen. They try to find a way to accomodate every request they get if they can. Even if they can’t, they are super friendly about it.

I’m very much enjoying including PowerBeatsVR into my daily exercise routines. If I was able to incorporate my own favorite music it would quickly become my favorite VR software. For now Audio Beats holds that place, but this doesn’t detract from the lure of being able to smash large boulders with only my fist in PowerBeatsVR. With the future improvements mentioned, I think this will be something important to keep my interest in keeping fit.
I would not want to see the scoring system changed in any significant way. I’m used to this, I know I have to be perfect in order to get the higher scores. I wouldn’t like it if the game was “dumbed down” in order to make reaching the higher levels easier to accomplish. Reaching the number 1 spot is the goal, and it wouldn’t mean very much if I found out I reached this level because the game had been altered to make it easier to do so. I don’t think it should necessarily be made artificially any more difficult either, but certainly don’t make it easier.

RESONARK X
Played this in vrchat and honestly it’s really fun. ^^ I hope to see a option for custom songs? similar to BeatSabers mods. The problem I have is the blue note. They work better in this game then in vrchat. In vrchat, they kinda delay a bit? idk if that’s a vrchat issue or not, hopefully that gets fixed. Overall it’s not a bad game I hope to see more content.
