10 The Book Of Distance
The Book of Distance is a sad tale about Yonezo Okita. In 1935, Okita leaves his home in Japan and moves to Canada. He is then met with war-sanctioned racism that makes him the target of abuse.

9 Panoptic
Panoptic brings in an interesting experience for both the player in VR and the friend who watches them. The game takes the VR players and gives them the role of the overseer. As the overseer, the player in VR keeps a watchful eye on the tiny beings in the world. The player behind the keyboard takes the role of one of those tiny beings as they try to take down the overseer. It quickly becomes a game of cat and mouse where the tiny being must dismantle the overseer before the other player can take them out. It hasn’t been released for long, but Panoptic has very positive reviews across Steam so it may just be worth a try.

Well, players can hunt with their falcon as well.

6 DepthQVR_Aqua
Released on the eighth of October, DepthQVR_Aqua more of an experience than a game. It was designed for immersion and relaxation. It is not a long experience, but a worthwhile one. The game basically places players on an underwater roller coaster. It lasts about nine minutes and also brings some interesting encounters with dolphins and sharks. Currently, this experience is free to try and should be experienced before a price tag (if any) gets added. It is a relaxing trip that players will be glad they took.
5 Mysterica
Enjoy the magnificence of online magical PVP warfare. Mysterica was released back on the ninth and hasn’t received any reviews yet, but it offers players the chance to use sword and magic in PVP action. There is also the choice of offline battles if players aren’t up for fighting another player. Step into cyberspace where anything is possible. Draw magical symbols to blast away foes or draw a sword and slice them up. This battle arena game looks like it will be fun for many gamers.
4 Beach Ball Valley
This isn’t a relaxing day at the beach playing with a beach ball. Nope, Beach Ball Valley is a relaxing time in a valley with not just one beach ball, but dozens. Released back on the ninth of October, Beach Ball Valley allows players to take a relaxing trip into the great virtual world and surround themselves with colorful balls. This game wouldn’t be complete without pizza paddles though. That’s right, pizza paddles. Players can use them to smack the beach balls around and send them soaring across the landscape. If that isn’t your style, feel free to pop them.
3 VR Maze
Any fans of puzzle games out there? How about fans of mazes or labyrinths? If the answer was yes to either of those questions, then try out VR Maze. This game puts the player into a maze that is straight out of Jumanji. Massive walls block your vision to the exit, but that’s not all.

1 BlockBusters VR
BlockBusters VR brings back the joy of Tetris in a new way. This time, instead of falling blocks, players place blocks wherever they want inside the game space. These blocks then need to make horizontal lines to disappear and earn the player points. What makes this game even better is that players can use a LAN connection to play with each other. When playing together, players each take turns placing blocks in the square and they can even share blocks across the board.
