About

Reflect Horizons is a VR immersive art installation that explores the idea of reality within a virtual world. It borrows from familiar real-world installations, that abstract and manipulate reality, to see what happens when what's being abstracted is not actually real. This 10-minute experience takes you on a journey from dawn to dusk, from water to sky, from virtual to reality and back again…

    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics are praised for their captivating and detailed visuals, featuring realistic lighting and reflections, despite a minimalistic style. Users appreciate the immersive experience and the combination of good visuals and sound, making it a worthwhile free offering, especially during challenging times. Overall, the graphics contribute significantly to the game's appeal, evoking nostalgia and a sense of wonder.

    • “In the era of COVID-19, immersive artworks and experiences such as Reflect Horizons are an excellent way for us to escape the four walls of our house and step into a world where things are simpler, evoking the child-like wonder many of us are nostalgic for.”
  • music
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the experience is characterized by a calming and soothing ambient soundtrack that enhances the overall relaxing atmosphere. While the visuals are noted to be impressive, some users feel that the experience lacks variety and can be lengthy, suggesting that it is best enjoyed while seated or lying down.

    • “Slowly paced with a soothing ambient soundtrack. I recommend viewers sit on the floor (or better yet, lay down to gaze upwards) and embrace the relaxing journey.”
    • “And the music goes well with the overall relaxing atmosphere of the experience.”
    • “Just a concrete, spherical room with some calming music and changes to the lighting color.”
    • “Just music and an animated trip that you can watch standing or seated in place, but it's better to be seated.”
    • “Slowly paced with a soothing ambient soundtrack; I recommend viewers sit on the floor (or better yet, lay down to gaze upwards) and embrace the relaxing journey.”
  • gameplay
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay aspect is criticized as being non-existent, with users describing the experience as more of an art exhibition than a traditional game. As a result, it lacks the engaging gameplay loops that gamers typically seek, leading to a recommendation against it for those looking for a gaming experience.

    • “Since this is not a game, I won't refer to it as 'gameplay' when describing this; I guess 'activity' is as close as you can get for this art exhibition software.”
    • “While this is free, it's not a game, and thus is valueless for the purpose of gamers looking to experience gameplay loops or any kind of actual gaming experience, so I cannot recommend it.”
  • atmosphere
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The atmosphere of the game is praised for its relaxing quality, enhanced by fitting music, and is noted for successfully evoking a sense of wonder and awe reminiscent of the Blade Runner franchise.

    • “The music complements the overall relaxing atmosphere of the experience.”
    • “As a big fan of the Blade Runner franchise, I can say that Reflect Horizons has managed to capture the same sense of wonder, awe, and atmosphere that those films did.”
