Beat Saber is a one-of-a-kind VR rhythm game that transports players into a world of pulsating beats and slicing action. In this immersive experience, your mission is simple: slash the beats, each represented by small cubes, as they hurtle toward you.

The trick lies in the details. Every beat not only signals which saber you should wield but also guides the direction of your slash. The music is expertly composed to seamlessly match the meticulously crafted levels, creating a synergy that draws players into an almost dance-like state as they slice through the cubes, all while skillfully navigating around obstacles.

With each precise cut, players are enveloped in a symphony of sensational sound and captivating visual effects that amplify the rhythm, making Beat Saber an electrifying and unforgettable VR adventure.

While definitely not one of my personal favorites there is no denying the popularity of this perennial title. While getting a little stale and outdated it still has the draw and ease of entry to keep anyone new to VR wow’d and the VR veteran entertained.

This game was absolutely making my list, and if you don’t agree, go play it for yourself. Everyone doubts this game until they actually play it. With a game that has “just one more run” type of hook, it’s easily in my top 25.

22. Blade and Sorcery: Nomad

Not my type of game but still a ton of fun for anyone looking to hack and slash and make their own adventure. Being able to mod the game on the Quest definitely takes this game up a notch.

It’s a journey into the realms of fantasy and chaos, where your archery skills will be put to the ultimate test.

While this game is starting to show its age, and I’m not sure how much longer it will be able to hold its spot on the list, it deserves the spot today. It’s still the best archery game in VR and the amount of content here is amazing.

17. Iron Man VR

Transform into a superhero, embody the iconic Iron Man, and soar into action in Marvel’s Iron Man VR!

This game really should be talked about more. No game feels more like a cinematic adventure than Iron Man. This game should have you asking yourself “Why don’t we have more Marvel games in VR?”

15. Pistol Whip

Crowned as the VR Game of the Year at the 2020 DICE Awards, this electrifying, physical first-person shooter (FPS) thrives on dynamic tracks, surreal dream scapes, and gun play that’s simple to grasp but challenging to master. Drawing inspiration from iconic action cinema, the only thing that matches the intensity of this title’s soundtrack is your own determination.

Conquer the leaderboards, groove to the music with your unique rhythmic patterns, or dive headfirst into the chaos as a dual-wielding deadeye with everything to gain and nothing to lose. In this VR experience, it’s not just about winning; it’s about doing it with style and panache, making every moment an adrenaline-fueled thrill ride.

I find myself trying to find ways to replace this game on the top 25 list every time I make one, but it always ends up with a spot on the list. It’s just one of those games that’s always fun to jump back into at any time and play. Cloudhead Games has done a masterful job at keeping this game relevant over the years with new songs, campaigns and modes. Time will only tell if this OG can hold on to it’s spot.

14. The 7th Guest VR

Prepare for the most spine-tingling VR mystery adventure of your life.

The classic game that sent shivers down your spine in the ’90s has been reborn, now featuring cutting-edge VR technology that immerses you in an atmospheric story like no other.

The enigmatic, wealthy recluse and toy maker, Henry Stauf, skulks in the shadows, concealing a dark power shrouded in secrets. Who is the 7th Guest, and what does Henry desire from them? The question that looms: who will survive to recount the tale?

As you delve deeper into this ominous mansion, the puzzles become progressively more challenging, with danger lurking around each corner. Every shadow, creak, and flicker of light adds to the haunting tension, enveloping you in a truly immersive experience.

Uncover new chambers, reveal hidden secrets, all the while attempting to keep your wits about you against the eerie horrors that await. The 7th Guest VR is the quintessential adventure for aficionados of mystery-puzzle games and anyone seeking a new, spine-chilling VR experience. Are you ready to confront the unknown?

I know I might take some heat here for adding such a new game to the top 25 list, but I simply don’t care. A good game is a good game, and it doesn’t matter how long it’s been out. The plain truth of the matter is that this is one of the best experiences you will have on the Meta Quest headsets, and it deserves to be on this list.

13. Dungeons of Eternity

In the face of a cataclysmic cosmic event that threatens your home world, the sole chance for survival lies within the sprawling labyrinth of dungeons on the desolate planet known as Eternity.

In this VR hack-and-slash adventure, wielding weapons takes on a whole new level of immersion: swing swords, hurl axes, wield bows, manipulate magic staffs, and more as you fight for your life in this fantastical world.

Join forces for an unforgettable cooperative adventure with up to three players, or venture into the dungeons solo, where danger and surprises await.

Another new title that absolutely deserves to be on this list. With countless hours of adventure solo or with friends, this game scratches an itch for a lot of dungeon crawler fans begging for this type of adventure in VR. One of my current favorite games.

12. Breachers

In the world of Breachers, strategic planning takes center stage, and intense close-quarters combat is the order of the day. As part of a team, you’ll work together to coordinate your assault or defense in thrilling scenarios.

Breachers offers an endlessly engaging and intuitive experience, ensuring that no two rounds are ever the same. Get ready to breach and conquer or defend your ground in the ultimate tactical showdown.

Breachers bridges the gap between slow tactical infiltration games and fast paced twitch shooters. It’s team based and strategic while still keeping you in the action and looking for kills. One of the best shooters to get into with friends.

11. Ghosts of Tabor

Step into the world of Ghosts of Tabor, the one-of-a-kind extraction-based VR first-person shooter that combines both PvP and PvE survival gameplay. In this immersive experience, your survival hinges on your intelligence, skills, and resourcefulness. Drawing inspiration from games like Escape from Tarkov and DayZ, Ghosts of Tabor presents a range of scenarios, from scavenging and looting to crafting your essentials.

Transform your safehouse into a personalized haven by amassing an impressive collection of weapons and gear, proudly displayed in your armory.

The ultimate goal is simple: find a way to escape Tabor, but the journey is anything but straightforward. Your choices and strategies will determine whether you leave this treacherous world alive. The fate of your survival is in your hands.

The only AppLab game to make my list, and that should absolutely say something about how good this game is. While Ghost of Tabor is still in early access it’s one of the best selling games on the Quest store and has one of the largest communities that follows it. This one is not to be overlooked and is up for Game of the Year at the 2024 VR Awards.

10. Hubris

Step into the shoes of an inexperienced recruit tasked with a daunting mission – locating a high-profile agent who has gone missing on a mysterious and unforgiving alien planet. Prepare to be immersed in one of the Quest’s most visually striking games, a masterpiece of craftsmanship that will transport you into a meticulously detailed sci-fi universe.

One of the most breathtaking and engaging games in VR. It’s an absolute marvel that the team at Cyborn was able to make this game for a standalone headset. It’s an epic adventure set in a beautiful sci-fi landscape. This is one of the best examples to show new people in VR what truly immersive experiences are.

9. Into the Radius

Prepare for an atmospheric, open-world, single-player survival shooter that immerses you in a world of desolation and danger.

You awaken in the heart of the blighted zone, severed from the outside world, with nothing but your firearms and your wits. Your only hope is to confront lethal adversaries, evade treacherous anomalies, and undertake missions that lead you to the Radius center, your ticket to escape.

In Moss, players are introduced to Quill, a young mouse brimming with aspirations that extend far beyond her modest home. As she embarks on a journey through the enchanting woods, her discovery of a mysterious Glass Relic awakens an ancient magic.

In Moss book 2 Quill returns, and she’s become the hunted. The forces determined to unravel this world are relentless in their pursuit of the precious Glass she possesses, and they will go to extraordinary lengths to wrest it from her grasp.

This is the first time in the list that I have compiled 2 games into 1 spot, but its not the last time you will see this. These games are truly amazing and need to be experienced to truly understand the amazing journeys they can bring you on. While Moss Book 2 did not fare quite as well in sales and popularity, it’s actually the better of the 2 games in my opinion. Neither are to be missed.

4. Red Matter 1 & 2

Red Matter:

Red Matter is an enthralling story-driven VR puzzle adventure game that unfolds against the backdrop of a dystopian Sci-Fi Cold War. You step into the shoes of Agent Epsilon, an astronaut representing the Atlantic Union, entrusted with the mission to explore an abandoned Volgravian base situated on Rhea, one of Saturn’s enigmatic moons.

This game is meticulously crafted to take full advantage of the cutting-edge capabilities of the device, providing an unprecedented level of detail and immersion that brings you closer to a console-quality graphics experience than ever before. Get ready to be captivated by this immersive adventure.

These games must be seen to be believed. The second but not last of my 2 games in one spot category on my list. While Red Matter 1 and 2 boast arguably the best visuals that the Quest headsets have to offer, it’s the gameplay and storytelling that really bring it all together. Those things combined with epic visuals and audio, as well as the chilling vibe, make this a real contender for the number one spot on this list.

3. Resident Evil 4

Venture into the universe of Resident Evil 4, now completely remastered for VR. Assume the role of special agent Leon S. Kennedy as he embarks on a perilous mission to rescue the U.S. President’s kidnapped daughter, taken by a shadowy cult.

This acclaimed title was a finalist for VR Game of the Year at the 2022 DICE Awards and secured the title of VR Game of the Year at the 2022 SXSW Gaming Awards, cementing its status as a standout in the VR gaming realm.

This one was extremely tough for me as I truly fought with the idea of making this the number 1 game on the list. As popular as this game is, it still does not get its just due as a true Triple A title magnificently recreated in VR, all on a mobile phone chip set. It’s truly an epic adventure and a classic that should be placed high on most lists.

2. Demeo

Get ready to join forces! Rally your friends and prepare to combat monsters in Demeo, the turn-based tabletop strategy game that’s all about battle and glory.

Roll the dice, manipulate miniatures, and embark on a quest to liberate the world of Gilmerra through round after round of exhilarating tabletop board game action. With a vast array of monstrous adversaries, playable character classes, and immersive environments to explore, every game is a unique experience, and no two adventures are ever the same.

Embark on five complete adventures, each with its own unique challenges and storylines. Grab your dice, gather your friends, and venture into the ever-unfolding world of Demeo for hours of tabletop gaming excitement.

So, we reach the coveted number 1 and 2 spots. This may be the toughest decision of all, and a bit of a surprise to me. Even as recently as 6 months ago this decision would have been easy, but Demeo keeps making it harder and harder. There is nothing quite like Demeo in the entire Quest library. Its teamwork based gameplay make this a compelling game for the number 1 spot and with the addition of 5 total adventures to play through, as well as 3 new characters to add to the original lineup, it just might be the best. But not today!

1. Walking Dead Saints & Sinners: Ch. 1 & 2

The Walking Dead Saints & Sinners:

Prepare to confront the full spectrum of terrors that the living and the undead can deliver in a fresh VR adventure set in The Walking Dead universe. Traverse the decimated streets of walker-infested New Orleans, where each day brings a struggle for survival through combat, stealth, scavenging, and cunning. Unearth the secrets hidden within the city’s iconic neighborhoods as you grapple with the challenges of this city-wide enigma.

As you navigate this perilous landscape, you’ll encounter various factions and solitary survivors, each representing potential allies or adversaries. Whether you extend a helping hand to others or seize what you need by force, every decision you make carries consequences. The fate of the people of NOLA hinges on the type of survivor you become in this harrowing journey. Your choices will shape the narrative and determine your role in this chapter of The Walking Dead saga.

The Walking Dead Saints and Sinners Ch. 2 Retribution:

The next leg of your odyssey through the zombie-infested streets of New Orleans unfolds in this new installment of the Tourist’s saga within The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners. Hunted by the relentless Axeman and pitted against the Tower’s relentless campaign for ultimate control, you must unravel the mysteries linking these emerging threats before time runs out. Your quest leads you to new characters, locations, weaponry, and equipment, all awaiting your discovery as you march toward a climactic confrontation that will determine the fate of the city.

In my opinion, still the undisputed winner in this category. With a mix of story, gameplay, visuals, audio, and IP, Saints and Sinners is the complete package. With Retribution being even better than the first, the size and scope of these adventures truly make you feel like you’re part of the Walking Dead universe. While I think that it’s time here is limited and might be replaced very soon, there is little debate now that this is a deserving spot for these titles. The Tourist would be proud.
