Local multiplayer games

Hard enough i know to get normal games these days that support 2 controllers let alone on a VR. For obvious reasons i don't expect to be plugging two VR sets into my pc but would like to know what good turn based games there are for if I have people round for a few drinks and a laugh.

Preferably oculus or steam store but maybe specify other VR sets if anyone else has a similar query

Keep Talking and Nobody Explodes is my go-to VR game for cooperative fun.

Shooters like Space Pirate Trainer, Superhot, or Robo Recall (rift only) are ideal for groups of people taking turns as the rounds are short and you can be competitive trying to get high scores. (Just make sure anything breakable is removed/protected!)

Another fun thing to try is Face Your Fears, where you can dare people to keep the headset on in very scary scenarios (really funny watching people's reactions).

Maybe VR racing games like Project Cars 2, trying to get lap times, etc. Even better if you have a steering wheel setup.

There's a thread on reddit here for local asymmetric local party games, but I'm not sure how good most of these are.

For non-VR hilarity Gang Beasts is so funny to play and watch. I always play this when we have a group of people round.

Some interesting titles there. Think I'm going to have to bite the bullet and buy Robo Recall as I've heard others reccomend it! Superhot has caught my eye a few times too.

I've been looking at Ruckus Ridge

I would love a golf one for a few rounds, seems like a perfect game but can't find one so far that offers local multiplayer support.

I have dirt and I'm trying not to buy PC2 as I'll end up splashing out on a silly gaming setup that I really have no room for! I've already looked into a G29 but apparently it's better with a stand etc to stop movement, and I really have no room to store it anywhere and would be annoying getting it out for a few laps all the time as it would have to be stored in the garage

The Dinner Duo features one on the hmd and the other on mk playing on a screen. It's a decent functional game, they say it gets manic from both sides of the divide.
