Bread Runners

Bread Runners is a multiplayer action game from AtomBread in which you play as a slice of bread. It came out on the Meta Horizon Store on May 26, 2022.

How it plays

The idea is simple and silly: as a slab of bread, you jump and run around the maps while getting knocked all over the place. The developer's pitch is tongue-in-cheek, calling it the best VR game for running around as bread.

The store description is very short and does not list modes, maps or progression, so the joke premise and the movement itself are the main draw. If you want a detailed feature list before buying, the store page does not offer one.

Multiplayer

The store lists Bread Runners as multiplayer only, with no single-user mode, and an internet connection is required. It is built for playing with other people online rather than on your own.

Comfort

Bread Runners is played standing or in room-scale with controllers. Running, jumping and being knocked around are typical triggers for motion sickness in VR, so players new to VR may want to keep their first sessions short and stop at the first sign of discomfort.
