I remember Enslaved being quite fun. It's basically the "monkey king" story but with a western sci-fi twist. Also a wild as hell cameo at the end.

Astro Bot Rescue Mission I actually beat this on PSVR last week before I got my Quest. It's super good. Easily the best 3D platformer I've played that didn't have Mario in the title, and pretty high up there even once you include those. The whole thing is just so charming, the controls feel great, the levels, while linear, are very dynamic. It's just a really nice game. Grade: A+ Batman: Arkham VR This one I did play on Quest. It's really cool, as far as it goes, but it's extremely short. You get a grappling hook, a taser, and batarangs, and I don't think I even used the taser once. There's only two scenes that even involved enemies at all, one was entirely scripted and the other I threw a single batarang to end it. Don't get me wrong, what's there is quite good, but there's almost nothing there. I'm glad I only paid $4 for it. Grade: C The Last Clockwinder This is a fun little VR indie puzzle game. You're fixing this giant machine, and you can record your own actions for a few seconds and it sets a robot guy on a loop repeating what you did. So for instance, you might need to cut a fruit off a stalk, combine it with another fruit, and then put it in a press. So you record yourself cutting the fruit off one plant, and tossing it toward another plant. Then you go over to the other plant, record yourself catching the fruit, sticking it to another one, and tossing it toward the press, etc. Your little robot clones repeat your actions on an infinite loop, it can get pretty complex and be immensely satisfying to watch. It's kind of got a Zachtronics vibe, where you can solve a given puzzle in 10 minutes, and then spend another hour and half optimizing that solution, or just call it good enough an move on. It's also fun to be able to see the little quirks of your own movements in your recordings. I have a couple minor complaints, like the gravity isn't Newtonian, so different objects will take different arcs when thrown at the same speed and direction, which can make aiming throws frustrating, but nothing that really detracts much from the overall experience. Grade: A-
