LOL, no! (We get this a lot from parents) Gather Town is a unique 2D virtual metaverse with Avatars. When two or more people are standing close to each other, we can see and hear each other. When we walk away, we can’t. Just like in real life! We created our Geniīverse University with a large building with multiple classrooms, an auditorium and lots of “outdoor” space.
