Have you ever imagined how it would be to explore the great wonders of the old world? Travel in time to the ancient world, discover colossal wonders and be amazed by these man made structure lost in the past.
Explore the Seven Wonders:
-Hanging Gardens of Babylon -Statue of Zeus -Mausoleum at Halicarnassus -The Great Pyramid of Giza -Colossus of Rhodes -Temple of Artemis -Lighthouse of Alexandria
*Each wonder has a session time of approximately 3 minutes of experience.
Controls: -Interaction through Gaze Interaction. -Back button from Oculus Remote or ESC return to MainMenu -Directional from Oculus Remote or Arrows change Wonders watched.
Short, simple yet nice time travel. This is a simple app, clearly from an indie studio, and from a long time ago (considering how much VR has advanced recently). If you are into the subject, it might be worth your time.
Unfortunately, at the time of this writing, the app is crashing right at the start, without displaying any error message. After a short investigation, it seems the issue is related to Windows certificates. There are workarounds, such as making a small patch in the .EXE, but I already alerted the developers about it and I expect they might release a fix in the future.

Not working. After the start screen only a black screen. Disapointing
Needs a little of everything. Yes, it was only $1 USD but a review is a review of the product, not the cost of it.
Needs some historical points tightened up. And the narrator should look up the pronunciation of words if he is unaware or unsure, for example "Cheops". Also, the graphics are very sub-par by today's standards. Almost didn't finish the travelogue on that point alone.
The descriptor says it is Touch compatible. I found no such compatibility.
I enjoy historical recreations in VR but unfortunately I don't think this one was ready for prime time.
Worth the dollar I spent on it. There are no controls, it just played all the Wonders in a row after I selected the first one hands free. And it looks like it came out of the 90s, but that is part of the charm for me. Would have loved to be able to move around in the environments. Whoever programmed it clearly had fun with it. No sure if the narrator was a person or a computer, but I don't think they got the pronunication right on some of these things. I found it all very enjoyable, except the elevator at the mausoleum, my fear of hights did not like that :(
I bought this for my dad, who's 70 and loves history. This review is just pointers he brought up rather than my own. The narration he found irritating, too fast for him to properly absorb what was being said, and he picked up on a few inaccuracies though I'm afraid I've forgotten what those were. He didn't mind the early nineties sparse graphics, though he did get bored waiting a few minutes for the experience to finish once the narration had stopped and left him just sitting there. The narration was clearly designed to work through all experiences in order, which may explain things like off-pacing and bits of one experience leaking into the previous one. He said at one point that it reminded him of the reconstruction clips they put in old documentaries when 3D was new. Neither of us learnt anything new from the experience, but it's not absolutely awful. Just a bit... bare. Short. Lacking. It would be great to see something like this be made with Unreal, more immersive, and built like a full-length interactive documentary.
