VR:RVW→Quest

System: Quest

The Oculus Quest was the forerunner of Oculus’ standalone virtual reality headsets.

Although it is now virtually obsolete, due to the newer, faster and lighter Quest 2 headset, we should remember that this device was one of the pioneers of virtual reality gaming.

  • If you like colour-matching games, you might like this.

Cons

  • I hate colour-matching games

READ FULL REVIEW

Don’t waste your time – there are far better Oculus Quest experiences available! I’ve made it clear in previous reviews that I cannot stand colour-matching games and Zookeeper: Blast Quest is no exception. Originally released on the Gameboy Advance generation of handheld consoles, Zookeeper has been redeveloped for virtual reality. The story is that you … Read more

A decent indy drumming game…but there is a better alternative. The Oculus Quest is made for rhythm games and Smash Drums brings a new fun drumming experience to the console. Like other games in this genre, you use the Oculus Touch controllers to move your hands in time with the beat – in this case, … Read more

Leap around a stunning sprawling cityscape completing sidequests and pursuing objectives to progress the story. Resist is one of the games that had flown under my radar. I’d not heard too much about it and so did not know what to expect when I launched it for the first time. I was pleasantly surprised by … Read more

An eclectic mix of tower defence and first-person shooter in a seizure-inducing explosion of colour and madness! Captain ToonHead vs The Punks from Outer Space is a mouthful to say – 12 syllables in all – and sets the scene for a game that is over-the-top in almost every single way.

Reminiscent of the mid 90s point-and-click adventures on PC, The Secret of Retropolis brings fun and nostalgia to virtual reality in a film noir setting.

I very much doubt any Oculus Quest users will be interested in this glorified email client.
