The Cubicle is a free indie VR simulation. Play around in a virtual reconstruction of a typical soulless office by manipulating objects, but watch out for something strange lurking beneath the surface.

Round the water cooler

Perfect for learning the basics of virtual reality or introducing a friend to the concept, The Cubicle is a free sandbox style game. Players take the role of an office worker within a cubicle. A table with interactive objects forms most of the gameplay. Grab a piece of paper, photocopy it or stable it, then throw a coffee cup at a colleague. When the novelty begins to wear thin, creepy elements start to appear. This basic plot is best enjoyed without any previous knowledge and with others. The Cubicle is a great first introduction to what VR is capable of and the movement based controls, but it should not be confused for a full game. Thirty minutes or less is enough to explore everything on offer.
