The VR experiences takes the user on an immersive journey along the trading routes in the 15the century. You can sail, row, fly, explore and interact to learn about the history of Bruges! This experience is now available on digital VR distribution platforms and lasts around 20 to 40 minutes.
Review: While this is a very short experiance (no more than 10 minutes long) I have to say it is very well made and really puts you into the boots of someone at that time frame. Grpaicly it isn’t perfect, but it is more than good enough to be believable. If you have any interest in the city of Bruges (found in the Flemish Region of Belgium) or its history maybe you will enjoy this. For me personally, it was a fun little experiance but maybe a little overpriced. But as with all educational content, its value will be different for everyone, especially to someone who is studying this region.
