Clever use of dioramas to tell a short story. Great use of space. Interaction is limited, but in several points quite well done
5/10
This is visually impressive, but does not tell a very interesting story.
Even though the artistic style is nice and unique, the music is very good and the atmosphere of the world is well presented but it is too short! How can the viewer invest emotionally into the emotional story when not much is presented to make him do so? It carries the emotional load but it lacks the substance. There should be more happening in those diorama-type scenes and should be more to explore places and story wise. Even though it was pleasing to watch I can't recomed it for purchase. It should definatelly be free. Sorry.
I really wish I could recommend this experience but in the end it is not enough for a recommendation. This does not mean it is a bad experience at all but nothing memorable. Graphics are at best mediocre and there is no voice acting. The story is very short and consists only of a few scenes with very little (to nearly no) movement / animations (like you would look into a snow globe). Because of the short runtime it is hard to get emotional. Compared to other experiences of this kind this experience should be free or at max $0,99 (e. g. Allumette is free and nearly double as long).
Experienced on the Oculus Rift. Spoiler-Free Review.
This is a 10-12 minute VR 360 cinematic experience. There are no interactions and, in fact, there is no need for your motion controllers. However, standing room or room-scale is recommended to get the full experience. There is no dialogue as well.
I guess the best way to describe this is an artsy short silent cinema experience set in a VR environment where the story is then told through memories, which are like animated dioramas which you move closer to and then peer into to see them on a larger scale. There is a lot of detail put into these dioramas and that's why I put 10-12 minutes because it will depend on how much you want to see. You can walk all around and get different viewpoints.
The ending was confusing to me. Not sure what the story was about, but even though I didn't completely understand it, I thought it was beautiful and the music was just magnificent. One of the best musical scores in VR. I don't think this experience is for everyone, but if you want to enjoy something artistic then it's definitely worth the sale price.
Sale Price Rating 7/10.
One of the most accomplised pieces of storytelling in VR that I've seen yet.
