Runesage is an exploration adventure game involving puzzles where you use different spells, drawn by hand with your wand, to discover missing runes. You'll unlock more spells along the way to help you find more runes and solve more puzzles. In terms of visuals, I found the underground and darker parts of the game to be very visually appealing in VR, more than the outside was to me, but the outside does still fit the atmosphere. I personally found the progression with the in game hints to be easy enough not to be frustrating, but hard enough to still pose a challenge, however more hardcore puzzlers might be a bit disappointed with the difficulty. The game took me around 5 hours, so in my opinion it's absolutely worth the price if you think an exploration game with puzzle elements sounds fun.

I have not played every VR game there is, but I cannot believe that there is a more fun combat game on VR. If you bought a headset to fight idiotic gladiators with hilarious physics, then you have to buy this game. If you didn't, you probably should anyway.

This is a game that's reminiscent of escape the room type puzzle games. It's not a particularly long game, it takes around an hour to an hour and a half to finish. The puzzles are on the easy side as well, but not so easy that you'll be bored with them.

What really sets this game apart (and justifies the price point vs. length) is the aesthetic of the game. It takes you into a world that you'll never find in real life, and allows you to experience it through the magic of VR. It's a mix of the strange and the futuristic, and it makes you feel like you're in another world while you're solving these puzzles. If you want to experience one of the more mind blowing environments in VR, check out this game. My only complaint is that there isn't more.

This is a really well executed tower defense game for VR. It's similar to games like Kingdom Rush where the build locations are static and you can select one of 3 types of tower to build, with different properties.

You might be thinking, "it doesn't seem like there's any reason to have tower defense in VR," but you can really get into the action of the game. Part of what helps is that you're not just staring at the board the whole time, you can use powers like literally throwing fireballs, moving a warrior anywhere on the board, and even taking control of some of the castle's own defenses to help.

This game also has a ton of gameplay for the price, especially if you're trying to 3 star every level. There are about 15 levels, broken up into 3 zones each with their own enemies and defensive powers. If you're a fan of tower defense games, this game guarentees a bang for your buck.

Solid VR escape the room type game. It has two modes, "easy" and "hard". The easy takes around 20 minutes to complete, the hard one longer. Overall probably about an hour to an hour and a half of gameplay. The VR immersion is good as well, so if you like these type of games, I'd definitely pick it up.

This game is spectacular. I've never really tried speedrunning anything at all before this game, now I'm spending my free time trying to top the leaderboards in as many levels as I can.

The game starts out pretty easy but slowly ramps up in difficulty. Simply finishing most levels is pretty simple, but getting top times is really, really hard. The best routes are sometimes not at all obvious, and you'll have to spend some time thinking on how to optimize your route. You get a lot of joy out of even just beating your own times and improving your skills on a level, even if you can't quite hit the top of the leaderboards. I've spent hours on a single level trying to get just a few more milliseconds off my time to get under 3.400 or something.

If you want a game with good humor mixed with metal music/themes mixed with tons of replayability, even if you don't think you'd be into speedrunning, I highly recommend this.

This game is extremely addicting and fun. Besides the story maps, there are hordes of user created maps, randomly generated maps, challenge maps, and so on. Basically it's a brilliant take on the tower defense genre with a huge amount content.
