Choose to play as the Adventurer, the Researcher, the Seducer, or the Dreamer, and write the story of a character arriving on Ouessant on November 3, 1903, and finding themselves caught up in a dark fantasy adventure. The story blends real historical and cultural facts about the island of Ushant with Celtic, Christian, and Lovecraftian mythological elements.

This study published in Virtual Reality explores the effect of the experimenter’s gender/sex and its interaction with the participant’s gender/sex as potential contributors to the replicability crisis, particularly in the man-gendered domain of VR. 75 young men and women from Western France were randomly evaluated by either a man or a woman during a 13-min immersion in a first-person shooter game.
Results indicate that men and women differ in their reports of cybersickness and video game experience when rated by men, whereas they report similar measures when rated by women. These findings are interpreted as consequences of the psychosocial stress triggered by the interaction between the two genders/sexes, as well as the gender conformity effect induced, particularly in women, by the presence of a man in a masculine domain.
