Doesn’t work

I was really looking forward to using this app with my daughter but every time we click on a mission the app shuts down.

Doesn’t work

Tried it in multiple parks and the map does not work. It never opens challenges or registers QR code’s.

Thanks for reaching out; the iPhone 6 is no longer supported as this device is no longer receiving regular updates from Apple. To enjoy our game to the fullest, please make sure you are using a device that is capable of connecting to the latest version of iOS (13.7). If you have any other questions or concerns, please contact us via support@agentsofdiscovery.com.

Nevada?

None for the whole state of Nevada? We have a Nat’l Park, State Parks, Historical Sites, Cultural Sites, Ghost Towns, etc...

Mysterious download

I just found the app on my phone! I’m not a game person and have no games on my phone. I Don’t remember downloading it at all. Nobody else has access to my phone either! How is this possible? I was worried maybe it is a kinda hacking app which steals my information.
Has it occurred to anyone?

Thanks for the review, Houman! That definitely sounds strange, but please note that the only way to download our app on iOS devices would be through a deliberate download from the App Store with a logged in Apple ID. I’ve provided a help article below which will show you how to restrict downloads on your iPhone to prevent this from happening again: https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT201304#prevent-purchases Hope that helps! If you have any other questions or concerns, please contact us via support@agentsofdiscovery.com.

Needs closer locations

1- there’s nothing wrong with the app, my daughters love it, but the closest location is nearly three hours away. There’s two state forests a National Forest and too many large state parks just minutes from my back door that have nothing for the app
2- there should be a map feature to choose from as well as the scroll down list that the app presently uses.
3- a location, even a general one, would be nice. About 90 percent of these places I’ve never heard of- who knew there was a nature center outside of Pittsburgh? Not this one and I’m an outdoor writer!

Fun and educational.

The game it a great way to learn about new places and the environment around it. I have also learned new things from places I’ve visited before. The challenges allow for some friendly competition but also provides lots of education.

Agents in Tucson, AZ

I played this game with my daughter and her friends at Mission Garden in Tucson, AZ and they loved it! They are in 5th grade and found the game easy to understand and the challenge questions fun to find and answer. My daughter literally exclaimed, “This is so fun, I love this!”

I even saw a high school student playing while we were there and loving the “scavenger hunt” nature of the game. It’s clearly fun for all ages! It is extremely satisfying to see kids get excited about being outside and learning about nature.

That’s great to hear, Cori! We’ll be sure to let our friends at Mission Garden know about the fun your daughter and her friends had completing that Mission. You can see all the nearby Missions we offer and look for new ones to try at our Missions page (www.agentsofdiscovery.com/play/missions/). Thank you for your review!

AoD at Trethewey House

We use this App to promote heritage education outside of the regular classroom. Through the app, visitors of all ages are now able to enjoy our heritage site whenever they want, however often they want, and for free! We have two missions, one for kids, and one for adults, but both can actually be used by either group - perfect for an inter generational family outing! It’s a bit like mixing geocaching with Pokémon Go, but with an additional heritage/history twist...and so much fun!

We are so glad to hear about your amazing experiences hosting Agents of Discovery at Trethewey House! Thanks for the review.

Agents on Hiawatha National Forest

This educational, place-based app is brand new to Hiawatha National Forest but has thus far been an amazing tool to bring students and families out to connect with the many faces of the Forest. The only reason I did not give 5 stars is to bring attention to the fact that these “Missions” are not set-it and forget-it; we have seen far more success with having staff on site to help guide and expand upon lessons.

Overall a fantastic teaching tool, great work Agents of Discovery!
