Genre: Puzzle

Valve (finally) throw down the gauntlet. Alyx changes the VR landscape and is truly a masterpiece; sound, level, visual, game design and story are all top notch. Will not be surpassed for some time.

VR essential. Incredibly addictive. I love everything about this: the mechanic, the sound, the art style - fucking cool.

As with all Valve forays into VR, incredibly polished and one of the best introductions to the platform.

Really creative mechanically, combining classic pinball with topdown bullethell ‘combat’. Visuals are great, is music too - but like the game itself can get a bit repetitive. Worth it for the concept.

Beautiful, short interactive story made in Melbourne. Likely too twee for a lot of people, but I really like it and am glad it came across from mobile.

FPS RPG with a beautiful setting and great environmental storytelling. Lacks in memorable characters a bit and at times narrative drive, but still a very strong game and likely an instant classic.

Super fresh & unique take on the somewhat tired space thriller genre. Quite a compelling story and pretty good voice acting coupled with surprisingly creative mechanics. Very good.

A very strangely mesmerising, minimal & surreal 30 minute experience. The art style and character/world design is unique and well executed. Also, it’s free - just play it.

Charming little couples co-op, physics based platformer. Can get a little repetitive and difficulty curve may be a bit steep for some partners.

Cute co-op platform puzzler. Movement is simple making it approachable for people who don’t play a lot of games. Lots of levels… and cute hats.
