Crafted as an immersive VR reimagining of 'A Christmas Carol,' 'Chained' is a new unique interactive experience that is already stirring up a scene in LA. Marrying VR and motion-capture live performers, 'Chained' offers up an experience that aims to put a new twist on immersive theater. The experience is confined entirely to a viewer's headset and the interactive journey places viewers in the shoes of the main character in the story.
While 'Chained' does offer a unique story and experience, the driving factor behind the interactive theater lies in its ability to showcase everything cool about VR. Only a handful of experiences like 'Chained' exist, but they have all had issues when trying to find legitimacy in mainstream audiences. 'Chained' is hoping to change this by offering an experience that focuses on gorgeous visuals and a compelling story.
