What is a virtual game?

The word virtual means “existing, seen, or happening online or on a computer screen, rather than in person or in the physical world” and that is an accurate description of how Virtual Games work at Vancouver Mysteries (dictionary.com).

Note – these games are full hosted by a Game Operator not a computer simulation or AI character.

Also virtual games are not the same thing as virtual reality (VR)  or augmented reality games, which usually require special equipment.
