Description: From the team who brought you the top rated VR experience “Welcome to Oculus”, comes the definitive introduction to virtual reality for Gear VR. Sit back and relax as you are whisked away on a guided journey, in which you will experience the key elements of virtual reality. From having your perceptions of scale challenged, traveling through the vastness of space, hanging out with friends, or even running into a few surprises, you will get a full tour of VR in a single experience. Perfect for introducing friends, family, or even complete strangers to virtual reality.

Review: While I should be telling you to download this app first and foremost, IE the very first app you should experience on your new Gear VR virtual reality headset…but I won’t. Put simply there are much better Gear VR graphics out there, much better “beginner” experiences that you should be downloading. This app is basically well overdue an update and isn’t even in a prominent position for people new to their Gear VR to download it! It’s like a long forgotten app that people once used to show their friends how good virtual reality was. The Gear VR needs a new intro app, a range of short experiences that doesn’t look like its running on a Samsung Galaxy Note 5. I’m sure this was a good introduction to VR at the time it was made, but it was clearly made a while ago.
