Just like mobile phones, the Meta Quest 2 VR headset comes with one or two pre-installed games, but these games are rarely detailed and can as well be called Demo.
It gives you a surface feeling and creates the desire for you to go further within the game to see it through to the end. It could be an adventure, shooting, or action, but to get to further levels, you need to buy games. Purchased games are detailed with broader storylines and levels and make your VR gaming and user experience a pretty good one.
The options for purchasing games have been designed to pop up in the VR layout in Meta Quest 2, and you can pay using your card.

Tips for finding the right game for you
There are no laid down rules to know which games are good for you and which are not good for you. Some of the tips you can apply to find the right game for you include:
- The size of your physical gaming environment: Some games require you to swing your arms at full length. This means a smaller space puts you in a position to destroy some of your properties, such as a TV set as a result of swinging your arms.
- Check your heart rate: Most of the games involve a lot of cardiovascular activities. If your heart cannot take on long-term cardio-related games, go for the ones with less cardio activity.
- To avoid nausea and possible drift into unconsciousness as a result of staying long on games, choose games that require less time to play and complete.
- The graphic quality of the games creates the desire to buy. Check for the graphic quality of the games before purchasing. The graphic quality can be known via gameplay or preview.
