I Am Monkey
I Am Monkey, a VR experience that puts you in the skin of a zoo monkey. Human visitors come and go - some smile, wave, and offer bananas, while others mock, tease or try to provoke the little monkey. Every visitor is unique. Charm the guests and grab their gifts, or fight back against their cruelty.
