I absolutely love this app. It does say Starry Night is "coming soon"; I sincerely hope that is true, I would love to see many other paintings as well. A "skip" option would be nice as there are some parts of the experience that can feel a bit long and I might like to spend more time in other areas without having to wait to get to them.

Worth it. As trippy as a road trip. The VR app set up is in a very large dome. The original multimedia tour that visited Vancouver, Toronto, New York, etc was the four walls and a ceiling set up. The VR app is perhaps closer to the vision that the creator wanted to achieve. In the real life exhibit, the floor is of course flat. In the app, the floor appropriately undulates with 3 dimensional topography. There are objects that are mingled on the floor space along with you, the viewer. It's just as good as if not better than the multimedia tour experience. The VR Immersive Tour is about 35 minutes. For $50. What his app has: Intro - 2 minutes includes sunflowers scene which lasts for 20 seconds. Then, into Van Gogh's room. Only three pictures are available and these can only be accessed via hand tracking and pinching. 1) The Potato Eaters 2) sun rising and setting over a field, with the sun doing a complete apogee 3) bamboo rises from a lake, with three main Japanoiserie paintings which repeat Each one of these three scenes is two minutes in length, although the first time, it seems like forever, not knowing what's coming next. Uocoming: Starry Night and there looks to be room for three other paintings besides. So starry night and presumably three more on top of that are upcoming. When? Will they be pricey paid DLCs that are otherwise just two minutes in length? Probably. I got this on sale for 25% off which is barely worth it due to the short length of the experiences. Otherwise the money is well spent because this is a very spectacular experience. It's a luxury experience. Hopefully any additional content is included content and not a paid DLC.
