Some games give me that experience:

1. Thrill of the Fight. Boxing standing up throwing fists and blocking with precision just doesn’t exist with controllers.

2. Blaston believe it or not. I really enjoyed hiding behind barriers dodging shots and leaping out to grab power ups.

3. The table tennis game. Swinging my arm like a real paddle was so realistic and the shots are just not reproducible with such precision.

4. Golf with the cut down iron shaft. Again, the fidelity of the shots just isn’t possible otherwise. You can get the same thing at some sports bars but it costs way more :)



Try "In Death: Unchained". You'll be blown away. By far the best game on the Quest IMHO. It's exactly the kind of game I wish for as a kid.


I second this. I never tire of this game.


Thrill of the Fight is such an amazing game.

It's fun but it's also an intense workout, especially if you crank up the difficulty level. I've purchased fitness games for the Quest, and while I enjoy them, they don't give the same intensity of workout that Thrill of the Fight does.

I hope they'll make a v2 of this excellent game.


They are making a v2! You can follow progress and add suggestions on their subreddit. I’m hoping that the apple headset is a target device for them as I think it would be an excellent pairing.


Thrill of the Fight is brutal. Never thought I would sweat so much in a VR headset. It's a great game and an intense workout.
