Notre-Dame de Paris: Journey Back In Time
Travel & Exploration(Re)-Discover Notre-Dame de Paris as it was 2 centuries ago, during the French Revolution. Developed for the video game Assassin's Creed: Unity, the 3D reconstitution of the cathedral required 5,000 hours of graphic work, guided by historians!
Based on this acclaimed model, Ubisoft created a sensational virtual tour of Notre-Dame, offering different viewpoints from the nave to the spire, in the heart of a living Paris of the late 18th century. All to the sound of a Bach fantasia played on its famous Cavaillé-Coll organ!
This experience was shown for the first time at the UNESCO Headquarters on Heritage Days 2019 and proposed to the public during one year in an exhibition at the Archeological Crypt of Paris (2021-2022).

PERFECTION
PERFECTION PERFECT if you never have been before watch this and you will have been
Pésimo
A well-crafted non interactive affair.
You just stand and watch, but it's all very crisp.
Amazing
Amazing and wonderful. Brought me to tears.
Nice little surprise
It's just a short tour of Notre Dame with passing moments of standing in pre-selected areas inside and outside the cathedral. More like being in Assassin's Creed Unity sets than true realism (which I think was possibly the intent, due to the intro connections to Unity). There's also a hot air balloon part that's pretty cool.
It seems like maybe it's a work in progress, or at least I hope so. My play area is very small and it seems like if you have the room to move in your own space you could wander further in the app space to look over edges or climb some steps, yet there's no locomotion options. That is a bit frustrating, so I hope they will at least add this feature, as well as some object resolution improvements. Otherwise, it's a pleasant little retreat to soak in the beauty and atmosphere of the cathedral.
Ubisoft forever
Nice work
