Description: From the team who brought you the top rated VR experience “Welcome to Oculus”, comes the definitive introduction to virtual reality for Gear VR. Sit back and relax as you are whisked away on a guided journey, in which you will experience the key elements of virtual reality. From having your perceptions of scale challenged, traveling through the vastness of space, hanging out with friends, or even running into a few surprises, you will get a full tour of VR in a single experience. Perfect for introducing friends, family, or even complete strangers to virtual reality.
Review: At the end of the day, if you want to show virtual reality to a friend or family member you can’t just chuck them into the deep end. They might feel sick and they might end up having a negative opinion of what being inside virtual reality is like! That is why apps like this exist. If you want to show someone what VR is like show them this, blow them away, then introduce them to something a little more advanced.
This app might be made up of simple 360° videos, but they are the best of the best. Some make you feel as if you have travelled to another land, and some you just want to reach out and touch things that are seemingly right in front of your face. Want to show someone the power of virtual reality? Show any newbie this and blow their minds to endless possibilities of VR. This is one of those apps that will make people not only love VR, but also understand just how good it can be.
