WAA! VR continues our series of oddly-titled but rather interesting virtual reality games for Android. In this game, you play the role of a tiny astronaut, and your goal is to "Seek and destroy" all asteroids by focusing on them to launch homing missiles. 

To improve your chances, make sure to collect the various power-ups that the game offers, such as batteries, screws, and wrenches.

Lamper Cardboard: First Flight is a virtual reality running game that puts the user in the shoes of Lamper, a firefly bug who is running for his life after his realm was attacked.

The point of the game is to survive for as long as possible while you navigate through tunnels by tilting your head in the desired direction. It's essentially Temple Run for VR and it's also free to play, so what's not to love?

Proton Pulse may be the priciest VR game listed in our selection of the best Google Cardboard games, but it's also one of the most refined as well. 

In an atomic paddleball match that will dictate the fate of the world, you'll need to use head movements to control the paddle and beat the diabolic entity known as M.O.A.I. There are 50 levels currently available, which makes Proton Pulse the least monotonous VR game currently in the Play Store.

Although Vanguard V is only available in a demo version at the moment, this is the most immersive Google Cardboard game around as far as the graphics are concerned. Coming from the same developer who created Proton Pulse, Vanguard V is a rail shooter designed specifically for VR headsets. There's just one level currently available, but the quality of the game is shaping up to be astounding.

The dev says that all Proton Pulse sales will fund the development of Vanguard V, and we can't wait to feast our eyes on the full version of the game, which is scheduled to land at some point next year on all major VR platforms.
