From Job Simulator page note
What was said about Job Simulator
Job Simulator lets players reach and grab instead of learning button prompts. With VR hand controllers, the player reaches out and grabs, pulls and pokes things, so there are no dedicated buttons to memorize. Job Simulator uses this to offer many different interactions, as does I Expect You to Die.
The cost is that these controllers are poor at moving a character through space, so such games tend to be seated or limited to a small tracking area. Examples cited ran on Vive, Oculus Touch and PlayStation Move, alongside Giant Cop. The source describes it as "just by letting the player reach out and grab, pull, and poke things."
Controllers Control Everything
Offers many different interactions through reaching and grabbing, with no prompts or memorized buttons, within a small tracking zone.
