Firefighting in the virtual toy world<\/strong><\/p>\n

In the high-end VR application, after a brief registration via an iPad, the player first finds himself in a typical children's room. There is a candle on a bedside table and a cat right next to it. After the player has looked around in the virtual 360-degree world, everything happens at once: the cat knocks over the candle and the cardboard doll's house next to it catches fire. The player sees and hears toy fire engines roaring towards him and shrinks to a miniature figure himself. The player's task is to extinguish as many sources of fire as possible while riding on a hoist and, for bonus points, to water a few flowers on the side. For this purpose, visitors to the fair are equipped with a fire brigade jet pipe - also in the real world - so that they also have the haptic feeling that they are on duty.<\/p>\n
