    Some of the videos on this are interactive. There is a creepy clown one which is spooky but fun. There's a nature one that's amazing. This is really great thing to try out with other people, or maybe you know someone who doesn't get out much, or a senior, they would love this. As you move your head its almost as if you really are looking around at a river and trees. you feel like you're almost there. Just make sure you have a cleared out space or someone guiding you so you bump into things.
