Description: An awe-inspiring open-world VR art experience exploring human behaviour, the individual and the collective. Immerse yourself among thousands of strangers. Watch from above as your movements influence the crowd in changing environments that are both wondrous and intimidating.
Review: Trying to describe what ‘Emergence’ is won’t be easy, but I will do my best. It is an interactive art experience based around our human reactions to crowds and other stimuli. You control a single little human and hundreds of others will interact with you as you run around and change your mood or stance via beams of lights. It’s creepy, it’s interesting, its emotional, weird and everything else in between and best of all it is 100% free. If you want something interesting to see in VR, but don’t want to pay cash this is definitely the app to go for. Just give it a try, I almost guarantee you will find it interesting (in an odd sort of way).
