In fact, by making it possible to perfectly replicate an activity in a virtual setting, Tabletop Simulator could be the most successful virtual reality application yet.First of all, I'd like to say KSP is a fantastic game! I really enjoy it. While some tabletop games have found various types of work-arounds, such as digitized figurines or game adaptations like Magic: The Gathering, Tabletop Simulator in VR feels like a natural solution. For aspiring board game makers, the game makes designing and testing game ideas easier and more affordable. When combined with online multiplayer, TS basically allows players from around the world to literally come together and sit at the same table. Tabletop Simulator’s merits are not mind-expanding, but utilitarian. The game allows players to design board games on a virtual table, then sit and play their creations with friends. Tabletop Simulator, a Kickstarter-funded board game crafting game on Steam, feels somewhat subdued compared to some of experiences virtual reality could show us. What’s more, with multiplayer, players could get together and simulate an entire sub crew, which could add a whole new layer of challenge and realism to the experience. Ubisoft’s already building a roadmap for this kind of game with its recently announced space sim, Star Trek: Bridge Crew, a multiplayer VR game that puts players at the stations of the U.S.S.

Aside from the obvious enhanced tension you’d feel from experiencing the game’s most powerful moments, like when your sub gets rocked by a nearby depth charge, a VR version of the game could enhance the experience of commanding a crew, making sure operations run smoothly, planning out how to deal with problems by giving orders, rather than simply pressing a button. Silent Hunter lends itself to VR because you play as a submarine commander, rather than simply controlling the vessel. Players control the commander of submarine crew operating in either the Atlantic or Pacific Ocean, ambushing ships and fighting other submarines.

Since vehicles with guns have already become one of the most popular targets for VR simulation, Ubisoft’s World War II submarine simulator series Silent Hunter seems like a natural fit. While I’m sure there is a subset of fishing enthusiasts who would love an ice fishing simulation with the accurate models of the latest fishing poles, there are also a lot of us who don’t know anything about ice fishing and simply want to get a sense of what it feels like.

(For the full effect, Make sure to a position a large fan right next to you for the duration of your fishing trip.) While developer Iceflake Studios might need to reign back the game’s open-world elements - maybe you can warp to different spots on the ice - the experience of reading the world, drilling the ice, and fishing could be thrilling. In Ice Lakes, an ice fishing simulator on Steam, players can explore open levels to find a good spot to drill down into the ice, then drop their lines based on the environment. That shift in focus opens the door for more inviting, exploratory simulations for less involved players interested in trying something for the first time.

Most VR sims (so far) emphasize physical action that feels real, rather than technical information that suggest a simulation is true-to-life. Virtual reality, by contrast, puts a much stronger emphasis on action. Games like the Farming Simulator series, for example, pride themselves on having the latest farming equipment, so tractor enthusiasts can check out the real-world models they may not get to see in person.

Highly technical PC simulations often cater to hobbyists and people with some active interest in a given subject outside of the game.

Even a minimalist hybrid PC-VR version, where players set up a mission on PC, then observe it in VR, could be especially helpful for the educational version of the game, which was created as an access point for getting kids interested in science and engineering. Most of the “game” in Kerbal takes place before the rocket launches: Being able to navigate star charts and build rockets in a virtual space could help visually minded players, and add some playful flair to some of the game’s highly technical sections. The greatest boon, however, would be in the planning. In VR, players should be able to switch and get a Kerbal’s-eye-view once a mission has commenced. Unlike many virtual simulations, the game heavily relies on the third-person: Kerbals, little green men who men who carry out your missions, are almost always present. Everything from your rocket design, to your trajectory for leaving and/or entering orbit, to your landing, must be calculated to perfection.

Popular space flight management simulation Kerbal Space Program doesn’t let you design a rocket and take it for a spin.
