Gorilla Tag is absolutely wild. You and whoever else is in the lobby are gorillas, and you play tag. Just like the name says. You run, jump, and climb with the VR hand controllers, with the only objective being to escape or catch.

The jungle is your playground in this game. And as the developers state, the movement is easy to learn, but hard to master. There are players who parkour through the maps like they are Spider-Man. It's looks like a lot of fun.
