Description: European castles are known for their mysterious brilliance. Many castle owners are either kings, nobles, ministers, or princesses. Each has its own ancient legend about them.
Review: Despite its ridiculous title ‘VR Time Machine Travelling in history: Medieval Castle, Fort, and Village Life in 1071-1453 Europe’ does have a point to itself. As something used in an educational setting I could see it being of some value. It’s a small tour around a medieval Castle, a small Fort and a tiny Village all of which is essentially about life in Europe around the years of 1071-1453. But there is no educational content here, just a virtual tour of 3 small locations. The graphics are adequate at best and the movement is via teleport. There are no people, nothing to do other than explore. For the asking price there really isn’t enough here to justify the full asking price, but as I said at the start, in the right setting it might have more value than it did for me.
