Description: Experience the ultimate sensation of gliding through the sky! Glider Sim is a professional paragliding and paramotor simulator built for real pilots in mind and is aiming to achieve photo-realistic graphics! The sim can be played outside VR or inside VR. We recommend playing in Virtual Reality as it provides the highest level of emersion!
Review: Putting it simply ‘Glider Sim’ is supposed to be a simulation of Paragliding or flying about on a Paramotor trike. While the game does offer just that it is not exactly a simulation and definitely doesn’t offer the promised “photo-realistic graphics”. What you end up with is a VERY basic simulation of it with a few adjustment settings like wind and thermal activity. Anyone who does this in real life will not enjoy this at all and its a touch too serious for anyone thinking of getting into this activity. This simulation is definitely not worth the current £15.49 asking price, but if you saw it for a few quid you might want to consider getting it just to fly about it a bit and mess around with it, because a serious simulation this is not.
