5 Star for Madrid Noir

AWESOME WORK. Rich environments and characters. The level of detail and design is among the best I’ve seen in a VR experience. A lot of VR has been basic polygons and minimalistic environments but developers have gone above and beyond with Madrid Noir and really taken advantage of the platform to tell a story. Loved losing myself in it and the interactive sequences keep you engaged in the story.

Another great VR story experience

If you enjoy VR experiences like Wolves in the Walls or Gloomy Eyes, then you'll very likely love this. It's like being in, and interacting with a Pixar movie. The artwork is beautiful and well animated. I've just finished the first act and I'm saving the second for tomorrow night. Unless something goes drastically wrong in the next act, Madrid Noir easily earns a five star rating. Update It's good all the way to the end. I'm really looking forward to the next release from this developer.

Haven't finished yet, because...

First I wanna say, I really like style and the way the story is told so far. But... Is there a way to save your progress?! I have finished the first reel, hoping I could start next time with the second one... But no, I had to start at the beginning again. So I let the story play, without watching, doing just the interaction to keep it going to the point I could start the second real again. I was hoping, I would find the save-button, or it would save automatically after starting the second reel, but no. Also, shortly after starting the second reel, I've drooped a photo, which I was supposed to hand over... It got stuck in midair, where I could not pick it up again and it didn't respawn in its original place... So.... At some point, I will have to go all the way through reel one..... Again. The story seems to be really nice... Hope at some point I will find out how it ends :-D

The bugs take away from the experience

I enjoyed the story and the interactions but the experience was ruined due to the performance issues (jittering) one scene refused to proceed to the next and since there is no way of going back to the main menu I was forced to quit the game meaning starting at the beginning again with no way to skip at this point I had lost interest. Surprised that there are no subtitles either, it’s a shame because these bugs were reported almost a year ago by other users but they are still present. I don’t like leaving a bad review as a lot of work goes into these but this wasn’t as enjoyable as it should have been and it’s one of those which if the bugs get fixed tomorrow your not really going to go back and revisit.

A perfect VR short film

I feel Madrid Noir is a really nice work of cinematic VR, it has the right amount of interaction to don't get you distracted and miss the story plot. This is not a game, it is a narrative experience, but unlike other experiences that put the user in a passive / observer role, Madrid Noir lets you experience the story while enjoying a right amount of diegetic interactions. The voices, music and art style are also a great point and I quickly fell in love with Paquita. If you like VR storytelling experiences, I believe you will enjoy Madrid Noir.
