Last January, when I attended CES, Samsung was bragging that it was going to bring Milk VR to their Smart TVs, and I had heard that the people who make the The Walking Dead series would be preparing it. It looks like some of this is happening, as there will be Gone.
Gone is an interactive story which is about a daughter who disappears in the daylight. There is a lot of viewing the mystery through different characters, and solve the mystery.
These episodes are broken down into five to six minute chunks that are shot in 360 degrees, which means you will have to be turning your head to find all the clues. There will be a lot of rewatching to solve this story, I’m sure.
I have to admit that I am very interested in watching VR works, because I am not certain how it will go. It really is a new type of medium that is not quite movie and not quite video game. Someone is going to perfect it, and perhaps Gone will be a good start.
