The short summary is that both your head via the headset and your hands via the controllers are tracked.

The result is that to dodge items in the game you must make the corresponding movements like ducking, tilting, bending, etc in reality.

Many games like super hot and pistol whip take advantage of this. The result is that playing oculus games is much like exercising.

Other games like audio trip and synth riders explicitly make it exercise focused.

I own most of the oculus games and I’d say audio trip on cardio mode is probably one of the most physically demanding. Unfortunately it’s not super popular so there aren’t a lot of songs.
