I had this exact problem, and then Beat Saber happened to me.

Not only is it the Tetris of VR, it also gives you a pretty good workout if you play on Expert or higher.

+1 for Beat Saber. I played this a lot when our 1st was born since I could play it quietly during naps while keeping an ear out for him (he constantly sounded like he was dying, so we were on alert 24/7 hah).

I was thrilled about Beat Saber initially but I felt more and more depressed when after a few levels, I couldn’t pass any more levels, no matter what I did. It got so difficult and frustrating that at one point, I stopped and never played Beat Saber again.

Edit: One major contributing factor was that I never figured out how to get Sony’s VR glasses to calibrate correctly.

This funny. After getting my son a VR headset for Christmas I’d say my cardio level has gone up dramatically thanks to beat saber and super hot.
