First Steps

The First Steps is a great way to start your adventure with the virtual world of Oculus. It's a unique experience that introduces you to the hardware and can set you in a nice mood. All thanks to a well-conceived set of attractions and a pleasant style. After the update, it can also be operated with the hands – without controllers.

The game consists of several mini-games, which are preceded by a short tutorial that explains how to interact with various items. Later, we can run one of the games (by inserting the cartridge into a virtual console) and try our hand at something like a shooting range. We can also dance with a very nice robot. It's a universal app that will also be the first choice for the youngest.

Racket Fury: Table Tennis VR

It is not always possible to go outside with your children, and a little exercise will never hurt. This is where Racket Fury: Table Tennis VR comes in. It's a table tennis simulator for everyone who's into this sport.

The creators from Pixel Edge Games have made every effort to create advanced physics, thanks to which the gameplay experience is very satisfying. It doesn't have to be up everyone's alley, so the developers have prepared modes in which more emphasis is placed on fun, and less on simulation.

Walkabout Mini Golf

Walkabout Mini Golf is focused on relaxation. As the title suggests, the game is about golf, but also offers other types of attractions. The youngest (and not only) players can have a lot of fun with the ability to fly over golf courses – although we should remember this requires the user to already be accustomed to using VR.

The production of Mighty Coconut in its basic version offers 8 golf courses with fancy obstacles to overcome. In addition, there are as many as 188 golf balls to find, which can take a long time for the most inquisitive kids, who like to look at every possible angle.

Fruit Ninja VR

If you've been around mobile games for Android and iOS for a while, you've probably come across the iconic Fruit Ninja. The VR version is exactly the same, an arcade, relaxing game in which the main goal is to cut as many fruits down as possible while avoiding bombs.

In addition to standard modes in which we collect points, there is also a new one, exclusive for the VR version, where we have to survive as long as possible, making it a classic Survival. The game is extremely versatile, so it can also be enjoyed by children.

Acron: Attack of the Squirrels!

Acron: Attack of the Squirrels! is a game focused on cooperation. To be able to start playing, you need at least one person to will join via smartphone. This requirement favors shared family sessions.

And the fun is great. A person wearing the Oculus takes plays as a tree and has to repel incoming squirrels (players on phones) by using various abilities. They can pelt the squirrels with nuts or catch them and throw them away. Squirrels, on the other hand, have various ways of approaching the maddened tree. They can use shields, underground tunnels or broadly understood cooperation.

Dance Central

All kinds of talent are oftentimes manifested early age. One of them may be dancing, perhaps accompanied by a passion for music. If your child exhibits such inclinations, Dance Central could just a thing for them. It is a virtual dance club with a great playlist.

You can here 30 songs from the tops of the charts, not only the modern ones, but also classics reaching to the 1970s. Each song has a unique choreography and there are different levels of difficulty. So there is no room for boredom. In all this, however, it's worth noting that the game features an online multiplayer mode and micropayments.

Traffic Jams

Definitely one of the craziest games on this list, but in a positive and harmless way. We control traffic in an environment of impatient drivers and careless pedestrians. On top of that, there are meteorites and other cataclysmic events.

Controlling traffic may sound simple enough, but it really is tricky. While the high accessibility of the game may suggest it, it is one of those productions that are easy to learn, but hard to master. With time, some really demanding challenges will appear, and we will see increasingly bold ideas of the creators. And all this is provided with a great dose of humor that can appeal not only to adults, but also children.

Cook-Out: A Sandwich Tale

Do you know the Overcooked series? If so, you will more or less know what to expect from Cook-Out: A Sandwich Tale. This is a humorous cooking game. We land in a fairy-tale hut and our task is to please fantastic creatures. And it is not an easy endeavor. Some of them are very impatient.

The game from Resolution Games studio is accessible and gradually introduces the players to new mechanics, without throwing them on the deep end. It is also designed for all age groups, so it will also be great as entertainment for kids. You can play alone, but the game gains a lot in multiplayer, where coordination between players is vital.

Vacation Simulator

Not every season of the year is favorable for going on holidays, and Vacation Simulator tries to tap into this. With this game, you can indulge in carefree chill in the company of some lazy Bots. However, they are also very social, so you can integrate without any obstacles.

Vacation Simulator allows you to practice... laying on a beach – personalizing the avatar's appearance and taking selfies. Nothing stops you from going for a walk, too. All this in some very pleasing locations. The creators have also released a free DLC, which allows kids to try some summer work. You can sell ice cream, sunglasses or take holiday photos.

Job Simulator

Job Simulator aims to show what "real" work looks like. In the game, bots replaced people and showed them what work is all about. Or they just think so. Your children can try one of the professions and see how… they shouldn't work. Be it as a cooks, salespersons or technicians.

Seriously speaking, Job Simulator is a very relaxing game that allows you to spend a few carefree moments filled with light humor. And there is a lot of fun to it, as the game offers many possible interactions. You can do almost anything here.

Angry Birds VR: Isle of Pigs

Angry Birds needs no introduction. Chuck, Red, Bomb and Blues are back to deal with the pigs who stole the eggs. The way to do it is by using a slingshot and destroying the structures on the island where the greedy creatures spend their holidays.

The creators of Angry Birds VR: Isle of Pigs have prepared almost 105 levels, thanks to which we will visit exotic beaches, snowy cliffs and canyons. If that's not enough, there are more difficult leves from Dr. Frankenswein and thousands of those created by other players. So if children like the core mechanics, they should be thrilled in this game.

Moss

Moss is an action-adventure game with elements of puzzle game. The story is about a mouse named Quill, who dreams of greatness. He soon has the opportunity to prove his courage when, after finding a magical relic, he awakens an ancient evil. This puts her uncle in a deadly danger. Soon, the brave mouse sets off on a journey of its life – full of threats and adventures.

We watch the action from the third-person perspective, just like in the classic representatives of the platformer genre. As an invisible guardian, we help in exploration, combat, and heal her wounds when she needs it. Quill has a great predisposition to spur sympathy of younger player. In case it turns out that a single game isn't enough, there is another part called Moss 2: Book.

Color Space

Most children like coloring books and Color Space can guarantee an unforgettable experience in this matter. It's a game that allows us to enter a colorless world and fill it with color while standing at the center of everything. The creators have made as many as 32 spaces available, waiting to be colored.

If the above description doesn't sound appealing enough, it's worth adding that each colored object comes to life – it becomes animated and makes sounds. It's a great way to nurture your child's imagination and creativity.

Fujii

Fujii is a story about bringing nature back to life. It consists of stages in which we take care of our garden, or go out into the world to help nature. The whole thing is largely about exploring, interacting with the environment and solving simple puzzles.

Throughout the game, we are accompanied by a charming creature that can steal the hearts of the youngest players. The game is great for shorter sessions every few days, during which we come back to check how our plants are doing. Everything comes in a very nice audio-visual setting, and the game carries a valuable message that can take root in the minds of children.

Gadgeteer

Gadgeteer may turn out to be a great proposition for young DIY enthusiasts. It's a puzzle game that focuses on solving puzzles, and at the same time allows you to play with physics and build your own devices or structures. The puzzles can be found primarily in the counterpart of the story campaign, which consists of 60 levels.

On top of that, there's also a sandbox mode, which is exactly what you'd expect. The playroom in your home can become a child's workshop with an endless supply of tools and items needed to build whatever comes to mind!

Ghost Giant

Ghost Giant is a game that falls into a similar category to Moss (also on this list). We take control of an invisible giant that helps the hero of the game – in this case, a cat named Louis. The giant's cunning and strength will be of great use to the rest of the inhabitants of the fabulous village.

Ghost Giant is a way for your children to discover a beautiful and heartwarming story of friendship and courage, served in a way that's only possible through virtual reality. The Zoink Games production is characterized by a magical atmosphere, and relatively large possibilities in the game – the player can manipulate the world and thus help those in need.

Beat Saber

Another great proposition for the youngest music lovers. Beat Saber has been one of the best virtual reality games for several years. At the same time, it's simply one of a kind. There's no other game in which we could eliminate incoming beats to the rhythm of the music – with lightsabers.

This unique combination gives the game extremely addictive, and at the same time providing a dose of physical activity, thanks to which children can use it when the weather outside is bad. At the same time, it helps to improve rhythm and motor coordination and develop an interest in music. Nothing but advantages.
