Description: Marius is the first VR experience of the newly founded VR Studio “Granola Studios”. It’s meant as a demo to show the visual and interactive capabilities of the team. In the beginning, the player is welcomed by Marius where the team shows it’s capabilities of high-quality animation in VR. The VR experience immerses the player in a huge library which can be fully explored. While the player walks around and plays with objects lying around Marius is moving his trolley around.
Review: Marius (or to give it it’s full name: Marius and the magic library) is an interactive short animation in which you meet a small rabbit who seems to find the library rather magical. You will learn a little bit about him and the wonderful adventures you might one day get into with him. But for now, it is just about introducing the character and showcasing
Granola Studio’s animation talents. It’s free, its fun and the little ones will love it. But make no mistake, there is no gameplay here and it is aimed at the little ones more than us adults.
