This is what VR is for

On oculus go. I finished Jane Goodall section. Very well done. Immersive. Piqued my interest. So I bought Jane Goodall national geographic documentary. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks So I have now completed all the experiences and I can report that this app is awesome. More please.

Fun and emotional

Experienced all 3 sections, was especially impressed with Jane Goodall since it was voiced by herself and touches on a lot of current world problems. Btw eat less Cadbury (Oreo's and such) - they're driving orangutans towards extinction with their palm oil policies.

I really liked it.

Good idea and great execution. Spent more time in it than I thought I would. Most important: I really learned something new. Thanks!

Lovely

I found myself enjoying learning, trying to collect all of the artifacts. My only suggestion might be that menus sometimes overlap the ghost version of the characters and a lack of swipe to rotate makes a swivel chair required. But I learned quite a bit about three remarkable women. Thank you!
