    I haven't played it much, but I've given a few of the different activities a shot.

    The last time I played, me and a friend decided to try out that "Isle of Lost Skulls" quest (we had never done any of the quests before). A random third guy joined up with us that had never done it before either, and the three of us spent over two hours repeatedly failing at it but slowly making progress (and having a lot of fun). I had no idea the game was going to be so difficult—it kind of looks like a kids' game but that quest was really hard.

    Anyway, after our hours of failure, we finally gave up, even though we figured that we must have been close to finishing it. Later that night, I looked it up and found that we hadn't even gotten past the end of "Act 2"... out of 8.

    I haven't tried it again since, but I'm still surprised at how hard that thing was.

      But now that they upgraded custom rooms a TON, player made stuff is the new main focus.

    I play it, very casually. Pop in once or twice a week. It is always fun seeing new people get to grips with VR in there, the social games (eg charades or disc golf) are just excuses to have fun together around an activity, and the team games/quests are actually very difficult to complete!

    Overall a nice crowd of people, little to no trolling, and a simple yet entertaining set of minigames. You probably won't play it forever but it's fun while you do.

    Rec room is great, especially considering it's free. Lots of fun casual games to play with friends, and playing with random people is usually fun too. I haven't played in a long time so I'm sure there's new stuff now, but disc golf and paintball were usually pretty fun.

    Is Rec Room any good? I have a Vive but haven't really tried any of the various purely social/hangout games yet. My friends and I usually play the various "sports" games together (cloudlands mini golf, sports bar vr, etc) and occasionally hang out and watch movies, stand-up comedy and tv shows in BigScreen Beta.

      It's great. If you already have friends with VR you don't really have to interact with random people if you don't want to. Hop in with your friends and play some paintball or try one of the quests. It's some of the best coop VR gaming you can play and its free!
