Apollo 11 VR (2016)

This sim was great until it stopped working a few years ago. I've noticed several comments regarding the same. The developer seems to have abandoned the sim.

A very nice history lesson.

Broken in VR, after the speech the game go to desktop mode and stay there, no more VR, shame because it looked good

This is marketed as an "experience" rather than a "game", and that's accurate -- the whole thing can be finished in less than an hour, and even with zero interaction from the player. That's not necessarily a bad thing, because there are such media as interactive films, where the viewer has some control over the camera. But a person needs to understand what he's buying beforehand (specifically, that this is not a game in the usual sense). On the positive side, this title can be played from start to finish with non-VR hardware now. It was originally VR-only, but it received an update allowing people to play with basic monitor, mouse and keyboard. Some people are leaving comments that they are having display bugs, but I personally haven't seen any problems. As far as the interactive gameplay sequences, they seemed pretty disappointing to me. Some games are "a mile wide and an inch deep" in covering a certain subject. By its very nature, this type of "game" appeals to a technically-minded audience, so the better approach here would have been to make a "foot wide but ten feet deep" simulator. I would have personally enjoyed witnessing crew training on simulators, hearing the theory …

very nicely done by Immersive VR Ed.! I cant wait to try it on VR mode.

Apollo 11 VR, developed and published by Immersive VR Education Ltd., transforms one of history's most celebrated achievements into an engaging virtual reality experience that blends education, cinematic storytelling, and light simulation. Rather than focusing on fictional adventures or arcade-style gameplay, the title faithfully recreates the journey of NASA's Apollo 11 mission, allowing players to relive humanity's first successful landing on the Moon. From the powerful launch of the Saturn V rocket to the tense descent onto the lunar surface and the safe return to Earth, the experience presents each stage with a strong emphasis on historical authenticity. It succeeds as both an interactive documentary and an immersive tribute to one of the greatest milestones in space exploration. The game's presentation immediately establishes a sense of wonder. Every environment has been carefully recreated to capture the scale and atmosphere of the original mission, from the detailed interiors of the command and lunar modules to the vast emptiness of space and the silent beauty of the Moon itself. Standing inside the spacecraft or looking back at Earth from orbit creates a level of perspecti…
