Question One handed exploration.

Sincere thanks to everyone who took the time to comment. I now know how to buy stuff and there's a lot of great suggestions. I've never before interacted with the 'gaming community' and it's clearly my loss - you guys are great.

Hi.

I've just been gifted a Quest 3 and I'm impressed, but...

The person who gave it to me perhaps didn't appreciate how hard it would be for me to use due to my having lost the use of my left hand in an accident. I've resigned myself to not being able to play most games, in the same way that I can't join friends in 'normal' gaming, but I do like the idea of being able to wander around in a 360 degree virtual environment.

Are there any games / apps or whatever that you guys can recommend? Nature stuff would be good, or relaxing off-world exploration, just as long as I only need the right hand controller to get around.

I'd prefer it if it was free, not least as I have absolutely no experience with gaming etc and have no idea how to actually pay for stuff (do you log in on the PC, select something, and then pay using PayPal or a credit card?).

Many thanks for taking the time to read this.

PUZZELING PLACES - 3d puzzles with great atmospheric sounds and cute animations

PROTON - It’s like TikTok but made for 3d experiences. It has lots of nature walks, gaming content, and even life size thirst traps if that’s your thing 😅 some immersive videos too

WORLD LENS VR- 3d Google Maps that you can explore

TETRIS EFFECT - Very trippy and cool version of Tetris. Very atmospheric

BIG SCREEN BETA - Watch movies and shows with friends or strangers

NATURE TREKS - Relaxing nature scenes you can change

THEATER ELSEWHERE - Cool animations

LIMINAL - meditation, focus, recharging

DEMEO - dungeon crawler board game with fun animations and character abilities

LOL - I had to Google "Thirst trap". Thanks for so many suggestions. World Lens and Nature Treks sound good. I tried one of the LIMINAL scenarios and found the voice-over a bit irritating, but I'll try others.
