Interesting experience from Google. It's basically a short test of their audio SDK. I didn't really notice that much of difference to other games in terms of sound though, other than the floor where you had to connect the wires. That specific one sounded very nice for some reason, it even gave me goosebumps. It's just 5-10 minutes long. I can recommend...

Not sure what people are complaining about. It doesn't have cool visuals, but it's all about the audio experience. I hope more VR game devs take note on spatial audio and make it part of every VR title. This is cool for introducing people to VR and how audio is a major component of VR immersion, not just the 3D visuals. Rate 6/10 could be better, but...
It was a very interesting experience ... Nice to see what audio options there are in VR.
It's nice to try, but that's it ... There was nothing really special about it.
I recommend this game showcase, but I personally would not play it again.
Audio Factory is a VR experience showcasing spatial audio capabilities by Google. It worked on my HTC Vive with Win 10 or Index with Win 11 system, looked ok, played ok, sounded ok. Explore each floor to experience how spatial audio contributes to the VR immersion. The narrator tell you what to do. Seated or Standing is fine.
Try it and delete it.
Great little demo for introducing new people to VR. The sound design is top notch. Use headphones for the best experience.
