BATTLESCAR: Punk Was Invented By Girls
Got it for 56 cents as a part of a bundle. Still got disappointed.
To be fair, it is well executed in terms of visual storytelling and cinematography. Some really creative sets there!
Unfortunately, these can’t do much if the narrative and the main characters are bland and uninteresting. The abrupt and undercooked ending made the already underwhelming story - a complete waste of time for me.
Also, it is an oculus exclusive, has a good amount of gender politics at its core, and if your chapter gets interrupted, like USB disconnection (thanks AMD) you need to suffer through the whole chapter without the option to skip forward.

As a VR artist, I really enjoyed this experience. It is quite daring in terms of the format of narrative and also mixing a kind of “book” feel into the VR aesthetic. I would recommend it for any VR artists as a source of inspiration.
The story is not the best however, a bit tacky and shallow but still enjoyable.
Disappointed that it took much longer to get on Steam than on Oculus Store and also that they only support Oculus headsets, especially since there are almost no interactions (any?), so it’s not like supporting controllers of other headsets would’ve been difficult.

Hell’s Gate - Slide Puzzle
Hell’s Gate makes you FEEL like Jeffrey Dahmer.
From the wailing of lost souls condemned to endless torture in the depths of Tartarus, to the occult and bizarre imagery plastered onto the puzzle pieces; This game really lets you immerse yourself and walk in the shoes of a deranged madman that will go to any means necessary to keep playing his sick and disturbed game!
Here’s the Keyes! Knock yourself out!

Eye of the Temple
I’ve been playing video games since 1978.In 2013 I fell out of love with video games ! Then in 2016 this New Video game “Gimmick” Known as Virtual reality came along .My first experience was PSVR And I was Instantly transported into dreamland !However I craved More .I built a PC and bought a Rift S and then a Quest 2. In My 5 years of enjoying VR this was the first game that delivered the roomscale experience that was seemingly Abandoned.It will test your mental ability as well as your physical fitness {Remember I’m 50 years old ) This game was utterly brilliant /sometimes frustrating because of difficult sections but extremely rewarding once completed.This game got my fat backside off the the couch literally (Because I had to move it) To create a 2x2 meter space .If you loved The original Tomb raider games but wished you could jump inside them or hoped for a Star Trek Holo deck experience with the clever design of folding a physical space inwards and outwards upon itself .Then this is an absolute Must Buy Game! With a torch in one hand and a whip in the other ducking /sliding and moving my way across some very cleverly designed Puzzles and Deadly Traps I was exhausted and amazed.Hopefully the very small team that has delivered this innovative game can bring out a sequel .One of the best VR games I’ve ever played !

As far as VR games go, this one is a gem. While there have been experimental games with nothing but real-world locomotion (for lack of a better term), this is the first full game utilising the concept and it does so masterfully.
In case you haven’t heard and are reading this because you are on the fence about the game: There is no artificial movement in this game at all. No stick movement, no teleport, nothing. The whole world is completely navigated by physically moving around in your playspace. The way the game uses that small space to traverse a huge gaming world is nothing short of genius. And most of all, it’s really fun.
