About

theBlu: is a deeply immersive VR series that allows audiences to experience the wonder and majesty of the ocean through different habitats and come face to face with some of the most awe inspiring species on the planet. The series, which is directed by Jake Rowell (Call of Duty, Final Fantasy, Superman Returns), has been designed as beautiful moments in passing or a collection of memories that powerfully tap into the vast potential of VR. The debut episode, featuring an incredible close encounter with an 80 foot whale, is already recognized as one the most iconic room scale VR experiences to date (a Sundance Film Festival 2016 selection).

theBlu reviews and comments

I've been considering for a long time whether or not I recommend the Game. On This hand, of course, the Price of €10p for 5min "Gameplay" speaks. At The end of the day, I decided to recommend it, because otherwise I wouldn't be able to recommend a VR game, as everyone is overpriced. But since the VR glasses are already so expensive, the "bit" probably doesn't make up anything more ... In any Case, I can recommend the "Game" or rather the VR experience to anyone who has just got the Vive new or just wants to show virtual Reality to their Kumpels/family. The Immersion is really perfect, you feel like a Diver. The Graphics are absolutely successful for a VR game, since there are much more terrible Titles! Only the Sound I found a bit very restrained, there would have to be more to come. I even recorded a little Let's Play if you want to take a Look at it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=paEkvNqgN5g

theBlu is actually more like a Demo and less like a Game, yet this Experience overwhelmed me a lot and moved me to write this Review. In theBlu, there is rather little to do in TheBlu. So If you're looking for the Ultimate VR "Game," you're wrong here. But If you can enjoy Things without a lot of fidgeting things around and just want to relax in the sights of Virtual Reality, you've come to The right place. Graphically, theBlu is the best Experience I've had with HTC Vive So far. It's just indescribable when the huge Jellyfish Swarms pull over you. My Girlfriend is even on the Ground in order to be able to enjoy the Spectacle in a relaxed way. All In all, you have three Scenarios at your disposal that are between 2 and 7 minutes long and can be repeated as often as you like. However, I would have expected a little more Content for £10. Still, this is the perfect Way to illustrate VR's incredible Experience to friends and Acquaintances.
