The Assassin’s Creed Odyssey game, set in classical Greece, has a feature like this. It works really well as a teaching tool, and the immersion is excellent. Even today, the overall quality of the graphics and the game still holds up.
The “education mode” is officially called Discovery Tour: Ancient Greece. It removes all combat, enemies, and time pressure from the game and turns it into a large, interactive, open-air virtual museum.

My kids have actually used this (without any prompting from me) in middle school history classes.
There’s also a Story Mode, which lets players build their own narratives and share them. It can be quite a lot of fun.

- soperj 4mo agoI wish there was a "camping mode" for Breath of the Wild. Would be fun just to fish and hunt and camp.
- satvikpendem 4mo agoThere are discovery tours for the other modern AC games too included if you own the base game.
- bwv848 4mo agoI don’t understand why folks mention AC games first when this kind of thing is brought up, KCD is not perfect but much better for historical accuracy.

- thunderfork 4mo agoTo be clear, they're taking about an "edutainment mode" feature, and not the standard game with its narrative about templar-aliens.
