  • Not worth downloading, even for free.

    It's very slow, and the controls don't work properly. I just ended up using my mouse. It doesn't have much to offer.

    Love the idea of this app but the controls are horrible. Other apps I've tried (even free software) generally work better. Please fix it!

  • A dud

    This one's pretty close to unusable, even with the controller set to precision. It becomes clearer and clearer to me that the pointing and clicking paradigm on a vertical *and* virtual surface doesn't really work - even if a satisfactory level of precision can be achieved (which is clearly not the case with "Powers of Minus Ten) the hands tire in minutes, and frustration ensues.

    Love this spin off of the famous Powers of Ten video from back in the day. I loved being able to fly through the human body learning about all the various structures along the way. So much more powerful to learn about biology in 3D.
