Well done, but could be more educational

This was well executed. Its shirt, but you get a small glimpse into Rembrandts life. The combo of video and graphics is well done and the responses from the characters if you dont follow their instructions is spot on. Only complaints is that it's quite short and it didn't go into detail more than one specific painting. However, I used this to show my Mom VR and so she could try something. She is a hemipalegic and since it only required her to look around, not use a remote or press buttons once I got it started, she was able to do it. She smiled, turned her head, and made audible sounds. All of which are really rare. Just wish it was longer.

Creative and immersive

One of the first experiences I've seen to blend live acting with CGI environments, and it's well done. Hope to see more from this developer. Would love more of these historic European environments
