Cairo's Tale: The Big Egg

[h1] Experienced on the Oculus Rift with keyboard. Spoiler free Review [/h1] So this is about a 9 minute purely cinematic VR experience with no interactions. You sit as the action occurs 360 degrees around you. I do recommend you sit on a swivel chair or stand up. This experience is probably targeted for young children, although there is one scene that may be scary for children. However, as a single adult I enjoyed the experience and highly recommend it. It has a really good story with a feel good ending. I had a few chuckles as well. The visuals are top notch, although frame rates took a dip at times, especially when I looked around really fast. All the action takes place in one gorgeous environment with a lot of little details strewn about. There is no voiced dialogue, but the sounds are excellent and the animations are so well done that you ge the feelings they are conveying, even without dialogue. I think I got more than my money's worth at .99 cents. One of the best VR animated...

Well done. Nice watch for the whole familie. Worth it!

The entire cinematic is about 8 minutes or so. It's okay. I mean it's only a $1, but there isn't any narration. It's just noises and music, which is fine, but I thought maybe there would be narration. I have a 1080TI and 7700K and a couple parts of the animations weren't the smoothest for the "high" graphics setting, but it was only maybe 20 seconds of animations out of the entire thing so not a big deal. I don't regret my purchase, but I felt like Henry was a better experience using ReVive due to the narration during the experience. Obviously, once you have watched Henry rewatching it isn't that fun though so it's nice that this is a fresh experience. If you enjoy watching the VR experiences I feel like for a $1 to watch it is worth it, or if you have a children who likes this stuff it is worth it as well. I would say there are 2 parts that could potentially scare a little one under like 6 though. Otherwise, they really aren't that "scary", more of a surprise or psyche out type sca...

Excellent! Detailed and fun. This is the first video/render I've seen since Invasion or Oculus Dreamdeck that really showed off what VR brings to the table for non-gaming entertainment. In addition to the 3D visuals, being inside the movie instead of to the side of it really enhances the experience. Swivel chair not included but highly recommended :)

This was fun! Short, but fun and well done. It's a stand there and watch type of experience and short, but nice! This will be a great one for kids!

Very enjoyable and kid friendly short story. No interaction so no need for any type of controller, you start the show by pressing space on the keyboard. Lasts ~8min and it tells a very short but enjoyable story. My kid loved the animation and slapstick jokes, Good animation, very good looking graphics, amazing environment, easy to recommend!

Cairo's Tale: The Big Egg is not a game. Games contain meaningful gamelike interaction and game loops, which are absent in this software. This is a short VR demo where you watch a pre-animated scene for a few minutes. Yes, I'm not joking, and whether I am or not, the punchline is the developer of this junk is delusional enough to be asking for money for this, when it's not even a game. For those unfamiliar with what actually makes something a game, a "game loop" describes the interaction and feedback a gamer has when playing a game. Tetris, for example, has a game loop where a random block appears, the gamer interacts with the block to position it, and then the game decides if that finishes a row or not, increases the players score if any rows were completed, then gives the gamer another block to position. Counter-Strike has a game loop where a player seeks another player, tests their skill against that player by shooting them or being shot, the computer rewards the player if th...

Played on HTC Vive Pro/Vive wands/RTX2060Super. A funny short animation. I like the graphics, and I would love to see an adventure with these characters. I had the settings on high, and I had a lot of motion wobble around the characters so I guess it's not the lightest on resources. would I recommend it? well at 0,39 cents it is now on sale, yeah, 0,79 euro cents regular. hmmm.. yeah, but beyond that I just can't recommend it as it's just too litlle.

I got this for $0.69. And to be honest, I'm perfectly willing paying a few dollars to support this kind of work. I would love to see longer, higher quality VR animations like this in the future.

At the cost of $1 without sales, this is 100% a "worth it" experience. Yes, it's only about 10 minutes long, if that. But it's just absolutely an adorable short 3D film. It's definitely one of the things you should show off to people when you are demoing VR to them. And seriously, A FREAKING DOLLAR!! When you have stupid visualizers in VR trying to scam people at the cost of $10, it's refreshing to see a dev make something so cute and humorous and ONLY charge a buck for it. Kudos!! And recommend to anyone that has VR and enjoys cartoons.
