Abstract :Virtual tours ae tours that are used in place of real-world tours, conducted via computer, telephone, or other technology. These tours allow participants to see, explore and learn about the areas they are visiting virtually. Virtual tours can be used as a substitute for real world tours or as a complement to real world tours. Virtual tours offer advantages such as no transportation costs, no time and place limitations. In this thesis study, Evliya Çelebi campus of Kütahya Dumlupınar University was modeled in three dimensions and a virtual tour was carried out in the style of a game. Kütahya Dumlupınar University Evliya Çelebi campus is an important educational institution located in the city of Kütahya in western Turkey. The history of the university, the Seljuk architecture in its buildings and its cultural significance attract the attention of many people, such as students and parents. Therefore, a gamified three-dimensional virtual tour will help students, staff and other people explore the university. The application was designed using SketchUp to create a 3D model of Kütahya Dumlupınar University Evliya Çelebi campus. With the transfer of the model to Unity, the necessary elements were added for the preparation of an interactive virtual tour, audio characters that inform the users about the structures of the university during the virtual tour and student characters walking around during the tour were added to make them feel in the university environment. One of the most important features of the application is that it allows users to explore the university completely freely. Users can navigate the campus by walking, running or even flying with flight mode for a bird\`s eye view. This project, which was prepared in the Windows environment, can be made available for the application, IOS, Android and Web environments thanks to Unity\`s multi-platform support.
