Mom's (68) recently got a Meta (I still call it Oculus) Quest 2 and I'm so thankful because that and the workout software we subscribed to has motivated her to start losing weight. And that's got me wondering if there's any other VR software that would capture her attention and get her up on her feet more.

Any software suggestion for Mom?

Thanks

Right on, thanks. I've seen that one mentioned probably the most also.

Tried Beat Saber at my friend's, and I think it would help with your mom's goal. Gets you worn out - confirmed and double-confirmed.

For working out there is nothing better than Les Mills body combat. Fantastic workout, no monthly fees, compete against others, and fun!
