The cute, colorful world of Tethered is quite inviting for players even if they’re new to strategy games. With its easy to understand mechanics and control scheme, many might find themselves drawn in more than they expect.
Weeping Doll is the kind of game that looks like it’ll be a scary, enjoyable romp.
Not only is PlayStation VR Worlds playing it safe, it is not selling virtual reality in a strong enough way.
Anyone looking for a simple game to introduce their children to virtual reality with may find Wayward Sky a good choice.
While Chapter 3: Once Upon a Climb is my personal favorite out of this bunch, the closer might actually be the objective best, wrapping everything up in a bittersweet fashion.
Exile’s End is so successful at being old school that you could probably convince someone this really is from 1992.
Mark McMorris Infinite Air delivers a tough, but still highly-enjoyable snowboarding game.
Windlands is easily the best platforming experience available on the PlayStation VR, and a must for anyone who wants to see what a Mirror’s Edge-style blend of platforming and parkour is like in that format.
Valkyrie Drive- Bhikkhuni is a one of those titles that takes awhile to get going, something that many folks will not be able to tolerate.
Diaries of a Spaceport Janitor is described as an “anti-adventure” game, and almost defies any sort of judgement as such, since it feels like it deviates from the norm in more than a few ways.
The difficulty in the later levels may be a turnoff for some, but that aside, Lichtspeer is highly enjoyable, action packed and a perfect blend of old-school action and new-school design.

Yomawari: Night Alone is a game that will be remembered more for its tone and story than gameplay, but that’s enough to recommend it.
Earth’s Dawn has many good ideas going for it, but unfortunately doesn’t execute them in a way that brings excellence to the action RPG genre.
The ideas behind Loading Human: Chapter 1 are exciting, but they don’t get to shine like they should due to a weird control scheme and ineffective acting.
Fans of the original games will find that Battlezone on PSVR rekindles their passion despite some definite divergence.
Even with its safe confinement to a generally unchanged art-style and environmental aesthetic, HoPiKo remains enjoyably engaging and challenging from beginning to tantalizing end.
Titanfall 2 takes what works with the original and builds on it. The same addicting momentum-based movement system is back and it’s still fun to use. Built on top of this is a campaign that, while not the most original, manages to create a relationship that feels genuine with a unique mission structure that embraces the movement system to create unique gameplay scenarios.
DoDonPachi Resurrection is a monster of an arcade shooter.
