Hover Junkers
This game features some of the most fun controls available for VR. It allows you to fly a ship based on the size of your room that you can build to defend yourself from other players who will shoot at you. The futuristic look and the fast, fun gameplay will have you ducking and dodging all around your living room. Unfortunately, this one is only out for HTC Vive at the moment.
Fantastic Contraption
Fantastic Contraption was repurposed from the 2008 game of the same name. Originally created for mobile devices, this game easily transitioned to VR, which feels like the right fit. The goal is to build weird and amazing contraptions that help you solve puzzles. The simple mechanics of this game allow you to solve difficult problems while immersed in a vivid and cartoony world.
Audioshield
Did you rock out to guitar hero? Dance around to DDR? Then you'll love Audioshield. It incorporates exercise and gaming to achieve a similar playstyle. The goal is to hit glowing orbs that fly at your face, usually to the beat of music.
The Gallery: Call of the Starseed
If you're looking for an immersive world where you can get lost, Starseed is your game. Broken into episodes, this game brings you through a narrative where you search for your lost sister. Exploring various environments and picking up objects to find clues couldn't be more fun, especially with the dark 80s fantasy film theme.
Tilt Brush

Dragon Front

EVE: Valkyrie
EVE Online is one of the most interesting games that has it's own self-sufficient economy purely run by players. It can be a bit of a grind, but this VR counter part solves that problem. You play as a rookie who has dogfights in space and can explore the world of EVE in first person.
