This app is specifically designed to teach students about science and math subjects like algebra (Fire Archery), physics (Ice Fortress), and even germs (GermBuster) in an inventive way whilst gaining points and progressing in levels. The app offers fun challenges — shooting giant germs, for example, or destroying ice castles — and as with other VR experiences, it also allows students to hone their hand-eye coordination, spatial recognition, memory, attention, and focus. This game is available for download through the Google Cardboard app and for use with smartphone headset viewers.
