Echoing what others have said about Oculus. Touch controllers don't work and it doesn't appear that the developers are working on it. I don't recommend this for OCULUS ONLY. Having played on the Vive, I found it to be enjoyable.

Carpe Lucem – Seize The Light VR, developed by Hammer Labs and published by Application Systems Heidelberg, is a thoughtfully designed virtual reality puzzle experience that transforms the simple concept of manipulating light into a fully immersive, spatially driven challenge. Built specifically for VR platforms, the game embraces room-scale interaction and 360-degree environments to create a meditative yet intellectually engaging adventure. Rather than relying on action-heavy gameplay or cinematic spectacle, it focuses on calm exploration, hands-on experimentation, and the quiet satisfaction of solving optical puzzles in three-dimensional space. At its core, Carpe Lucem revolves around guiding beams of colored light through intricate mechanical environments in order to activate and bloom stylized flowers. The player interacts with a variety of optical tools—mirrors, prisms, filters, teleporters, and magnets—each of which alters the path, color, or direction of light.

Played on original Vive This game is a wonderful meditative puzzle game that really takes advantage of full dimensionality without stressing you out. It's not terribly long or difficult but it's also not upsettingly short or easy. If you want some nice puzzles in a beautiful environment, then this game is well worth picking up.

Lovely product; really enjoyed playing, just wish it was longer!

This is a wonderful relaxed puzzle game, The addition of a third dimension adds a great deal to this type of game and being able to pick up, retate and place elements just makes it a really compelling and tactile experience. Try the demo. The addition of workshop support is a great bonus too! The backgrounds are also really pretty and performance is solid. One of my favourites.
