VR tourism. Or even better: VR historical tourism!!!

No points, no battles, no level ups, no upgrades. Just exploring faraway or historical places.

Exists and is free. Lookup The Dawn of Art. Includes narration by Daisy Ridley.

There's a Dali one too, but it's a little weird. The name escapes me, but there's also a virtual museum that was cool to noodle around with. All free.
