What Bullet Sorrow VR does well is create a no-holds barred, bullet rich, shooting experience. The single-player mode shows you what VikingVRStudio is capable of, there’s just not enough of it. The multiplayer mode is the core experience in Bullet Sorrow VR, which means if you can find a match then great, the rest of the time you’ve got half a videogame.

What Symphony of the Machine really needs is another tower or two to complete, possibly joining several together in some way to increase the difficulty to a far higher degree. As a first title Stirfire Games has created an enjoyable experience while it lasts, everything is solid and works well and there were no real glitches or issues to speak of. Symphony of the Machine has some good ideas going for it, but for many players it’ll be seen as more of a tech demo than anything else.

Voxel Shot VR feels like it’s playing on its novel, quirky characteristics. It can be fun to begin with – and younger players will certainly like it – but for HTC Vive gamers who’re used to titles like Raw Data, Space Pirate Trainer, Island 359, Serious Sam, Zombie Training Simulator and many more, Voxel Shot VR just doesn’t offer enough.

There is one massive upshot to the lack of content, and that’s the fact Blobby Tennis is free. And it needs to be or players wouldn’t be too happy if they paid for this. So is Blobby Tennis bad, actually no it isn’t. It’s not glitchy, everything looks and plays well, it just feels like an early access title that’s good for first-timers to VR. If the developer can expand the experience adding further replayability and more features then it’ll be more the better for it.

Ultimately, VectorWars is an enjoyable VR experience but not one that will remain with you long after your initial enthusiasm has passed. However, this has been reflected in the price, as Red Iron Labs has ensured that VectorWars has a remarkably low barrier for entry (at the time of writing the videogame is available on Steam for just £2.79 GBP). This makes VectorWars hard to fault beyond the limitation inherent to the genre, and an easy recommendation for a pick-up-and-play title not requiring too much thought.

Battlezone is one of the best VR titles out there.

This mixture of gameplay elements makes Loco Dojo a great multiplayer experience but just like any online VR multiplayer it does suffer from player numbers.

Forestry certainly has its quirks. It can go from dull to intriguing to fun in quick succession, and those that have the patience for this type of experience will certainly enjoy what it has to offer. In its current form Decoder should really have put Forestry in Steam Early Access, getting some feedback and fine tuning the video game, as it stills feels some fine tuning is needed.

Headmaster is a well put together title that the majority of VR gamers will find enjoyable. It does feel a bit 2016 in its gameplay offerings, with VR having moved on leaps and bounds in terms of the depth of content available. Headmaster is a tongue in cheek experience that doesn’t take itself too seriously, supplying light hearted fun mixed with good physics, and that’s no bad thing.

For those that’ve become rightly bored with wave shooters Blasters of the Universe offers that spark of light, reminding us why this genre became popular in the first place. The entire theme, visual aesthetics and gameplay make Blasters of the Universe a joy to play, just be prepared to swear and curse – possibly throw a controller – as that heart disappears because you didn’t see that one laser bolt soon enough.

It’s one of those titles that really doesn’t have many negative qualities. House of How has created a fast-paced, action shooter that offers difficulty and addictive gameplay in spades. It just feels like it’s a year too late.

While Bloody Zombies doesn’t reinvent the scrolling beat-‘em-up wheel, it does offer a convincing argument for 2D videogames making the jump to the more immersive medium.

The story has a much deeper meaning than just a few travellers hitching a train ride – which VRFocus isn’t going to spoil here – safe to say that’s it pulls on the heart strings as a memorable VR experience. If you enjoy short VR animations then Manifest 99 is up there with some of the best. It provides a strong, engaging storyline with a nice level of controllability that’s not often seen, great for VR enthusiasts as well as a prefect experience for VR first timers.

Hurl VR is great fun, so much so that you’ll probably finish it in one sitting – completing it took just under one hour for this review. The other issue is the lack of replay elements, as once you’ve successfully played through all 30 levels there are no additional features – apart from achievements – to entice you to replay the videogame. Aside from that Hurl VR is a finely polished title, with good looking sci-fi visuals and solid physics-based gameplay.

Floor Plan: Hands-On Edition is still as enjoyable as the original was. It’s not one of those virtual reality (VR) videogames that’s an essential pickup for PC VR users, more of a throwaway experience when you want to kill half an hour. Thankfully it’s been priced accordingly, so it’s perfect if you’ve been after a smaller title that doesn’t cost major bucks.

Duck Season really is a mixed bag of ideas, trying to build out a core experience that’s reasonably solid, it just didn’t have enough variety to be a sole title in its own right. Stress Level Zero’s additions are really just padding, stretching out the replay factor with seven different endings may only encourage a small number of users to keep going back. Duck Season does have a charm all of its own though, making for a perfectly enjoyable experience.

There’s only one level and you’re stuck to the spot. Only three guns and the re-playability factor is solely limited to a global leaderboard. What Hangry Bunnies from Mars needs is more variety, it may not be priced as a premium experience but it feels somewhat hollow. It has potential to be one of the quirkiest VR wave shooters available, in its current form however most gamers will probably play a few rounds then move onto something else.

If you already own it it's worth going back to, if not it's worth taking a look.

Luna isn’t the sort of title that’s going to draw VR players away from their first-person shooters (FPS) or RPG’s, looking for the next amazing VR experience. It’s the type of title that’ll suit those who liked Gnomes & Goblins for example, an unusual marriage of interactivity and storytelling. Or perfect for those who’ve got kids old enough to try VR and want to see what it’s all about.

SUPERHYPERCUBE seems like the love child between Rez Infinite and Tetris, psychedelic, neon rich visuals with a puzzle mechanic that’s difficult to put down. If you’re after something that little bit different for your HTC Vive this holiday season, take a look at SUPERHYPERCUBE.

Skyworld is difficult, and these battles aren’t easily won until you’ve significantly improved your forces – that’s if you manage to in the first place. Screw up your resources – build too much of one, not enough of another – and Skyworld can quickly bottleneck, with there being no obvious way around certain predicaments. With this inmindSkyworld certainly won’t be for everyone simply due to its difficulty. But for those tacticians after a challenge Skyworld is definitely one of the best RTS style VR titles available.

Due to issues like reloading and jumpy nature of V-Move, battles tend to have an inconsistent, fliting nature to them. Maybe after many, many hours of gameplay you’ll find a sweet spot but you may not be so patient. In comparison to Front Defense, Front Defense: Heroes is certainly a step up, offering a far more dynamic experience than its single-player sibling, it’s just not quite the standout experience it could’ve been.

High Noon VR is one of those VR experiences that doesn’t do anything particularly wrong, the visuals are good and the main shooting aspect works perfectly well. But it’s in a very crowded genre that features some awesome videogames with unique selling points, such as Raw Data, Blasters of the Universe, DOOM VFR, Space Pirate Trainer and many, many more. It’s fairly cheap, so if you love cowboy style shoot-em-ups then give it a go, otherwise there are much better examples of this genre out there.

Despite entertaining and satisfying basic gameplay, Shooty Fruity ultimately fails to rise above its roots as a wave shooter, with simplistic visual style, lack of story or multiplayer. It also aims to copy the supermarket setting a little too well, resulting in the annoying voice and muzak-style background music, which doesn’t help endear it to the audience. Shooty Fruity is a fun way to kill a couple of hours, but offers little else.

All in all there’s nothing to recommend Train Runner VR. Gameplay is shallow and repetitive, the character models look like they came from a 90s cartoon show trying 3D for the first time, and it’s priced at $19.99! Here’s a certainty, if you buy Train Runner VR on Steam you’ll request a refund with 30 mins. Save yourself time and money and just don’t.

There are a number of VR escape room titles available like Chair in a Room and I Expect You To Die which do the genre justice. Nevrosa: Escape is another that can be added to that list of entertaining puzzlers, with beautiful visuals and brain taxing challenges that’ll fill a good few hours.

Day of Destruction certainly doesn’t wow in the graphics department – there are far better looking virtual reality (VR) titles – but it doesn’t need to. It has that B-movie quality that just works, and the in game audio (especially the music) is top notch. That’s why it’s a shame there isn’t more to the gameplay. Sure you can go back with the better weapons to jump you up the global leader boards, other than that there’s little to hold your interest. Day of Destruction certainly isn’t one of those must have VR titles, it’s a blast for a while until every city starts to look the same.

Stunt Corgi is one of those VR titles that’s hard to define. It doesn’t really fit into any category and doesn’t feature any goal as such – for those that like a start and end to their videogames. The experience is missing certain options like movement or being able to manipulate the items – like stretching or shrinking them – but that doesn’t mean it’s not enjoyable to play. Stunt Corgi is a videogame you’ll either love and spend hours on or find it amusing for an hour then get bored, the question you need to ask yourself is, how much do you love making corgi’s jump through hoops?
