Description: This is a sad story, a tragic moment. In the summer of 1945, atomic weapons were used for the first time in human history. This VR game allows you to experience the feeling of being in Hiroshima, watching the atomic bomb slowly fall, the mushroom nuclear cloud rises, and everything around being dissolved by nuclear energy radiation. We wish that mankind will never experience the pain of war again. Peace forever.
Review: ‘VR Hiroshima 1945’ is a short interactive experience about the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki on August 6 and 9 1945. It only lasts 5 minutes and there is no educational value or narration of any kind. In fact, it’s weirdly pointless. It’s not like the animation is worth the asking price because it really isn’t. While someone might be able to get some educational value out of this there is no real point it existing without some context as to why it happened and what happened afterwards. Save your £3.99 here and just read this Wiki page instead.
