You also serve as another set of eyes, looking around environments for secrets and ways through its puzzles. You – as in the physical you – are a “storyteller,” brought into the world through very particular magic, and, when an adventurous little mouse, Quill, picks up a magical crystal, you become her partner in her adventure, helping her by manipulating the environment and protecting her from threats in the world. It doesn’t take long to realise why it’s important to Moss, though.įirstly, the VR perspective is woven masterfully into the delightful folktale-style narrative of Moss. It’s a third person puzzle/ platformer, after all, and it’s not a genre you would necessarily think benefits from what VR offers as a platform.
Initially, it might seem strange that the game’s forcing you to play in VR. This is one of the finest uses of the PlayStation VR hardware to date. Then, the deeper you dig into it, the more delightful it becomes. Moss, thanks to its achingly charming mouse protagonist, is immediately appealing and engaging. Use your two hammers to crush the incoming runes, race the competition, and rock out to bands such as Alestorm, Saltatio Mortis, Feuerschwanz, and Wild Rose.I know a game has something special about it when I’m playing, and my wife sees it in passing, taps me on the shoulder, and asks me to have a go. Strap on your Viking helmet and get your hammers at the ready, because Ragnarock’s solo/multiplayer rhythm game will let you pound the drums to a pulsating, rocking beat to move your Norse longship ever forward into unconquered lands. Now in the multiplayer mode is a Mario Kart-style power-up system that lets you boost through songs for the high score, or send special abilities at you opponents to slow them down in their tracks. Synth Riders is a bit like Beat Saber, but has a much more ample multiplayer mode, which lets you not only compete for the higher score while actively playing against friends, but with its new ‘Power-up’ update, you’ll be able to do much more. ‘Pistol Whip’ on Quest Synth Riders – $25 Cloudhead Games has poured a lot of love into Pistol Whip with a bunch of updates that have brought new levels to the game too, making it a must-have if you want to burn some calories without knowing it. Even if you suck, if you play long enough you’ll definitely work up a sweat.Īlthough you might think it belongs in the ‘Shooter’ category by virtue of… well… the guns, this is all about keeping flow, dodging, ducking, and diving to the beat of some seriously awesome music. Rest assured, you’ll find yourself honing your new Jedi skills to heady EDM beats, but also a pretty wide genre of music nowadays thanks to both paid and free DLC. If you swear you don’t have any rhythm, it’s possible you’ve never had the chance to slash a pair of lightsabers at flying directional blocks before.
