"The Eye" is an android VR videogame that delves into the principle of trust in the maker of the work, inspired by the videogame Stanley Parable and the Milgram experiment. The game places the player in the shoes of a character who follows a mysterious voice, blindly following its instructions as they navigate through different levels and complete various tasks. However, as the player progresses through the game, they begin to question the intentions of the voice and the purpose of their actions, leaving them with a new perspective on how they obey real-world rules. Through the immersive experience of "The Eye," players are challenged to review their own actions in daily life and consider the power dynamics that shape our society. The game blurs the line between reality and virtual reality, leaving the player with a sense of uncertainty and distrust. As the game concludes, players discover that there is a puppeteer in the form of the maker holding a remote control to control their actions in-game. This revelation drives home the importance of critical thinking and the dangers of blindly following authority figures. "The Eye" is not just a game but an experience that encourages players to reflect on how they trust others and the choices they make in their daily lives. By questioning their own actions and the motives of those in positions of authority, players gain a deeper understanding of the power dynamics at play. With its immersive gameplay and thought-provoking themes, "The Eye" challenges players to be more conscious of the decisions they make and the people they trust.
