Best family VR experience?

Just picked up an Oculus Rift - what's the best game to showcase VR to the wife & kids?

Thanks for the replies :-)

Not set it up yet, so didn't even know there was a demo!

Thanks all!

Well we all had a first play around.

Only tried Dreamdeck and First Contact but I have to say it's FAR better than I ever expected to be honest!

Missus said she didn't want to have a go, but did in the end - she likes it, but said she prefers the one that she can see her hands in! She also finds the cable irritating - may have to look at a solution for that.

I limited the kids time on it for now.

I need to do some reorganisation of my desk and filing cabinet etc, to get the play area bigger.

Thanks for all the input folks!

Missus wants to try an escape room. Is there a good one worth getting?

Doh.. My Lenovo Explorer has been dispatched too... I've gone from having no VR to having 2!

I intend to sell on the Lenovo - hopefully that's the wise choice!

Surprised nobody mentioned The Lab. It's a great bunch of games and experiences all wrapped up in one. And it's free.

Give it a go.

Yeah, queued a few freebies up including The Lab.

Just need to find her a decent escape room type game to try.

Haha, ain't that the thing!

Son played Robo Recall when he got in from school.. he was sweating after just 30 min (all I would allow him in one go).

He also smacked the conservatory door twice.. I need to get my sensors up on the wall and make a bigger play area.
