Absolutely great idea

I’m sure there will be more and more exhibitions added step by step. But those already there look great!

Does not work

Half the skeletons don’t have AR and the ones who do you have to watch a video that never loads

Let down

The woodpecker worked great and we were excited. Nothing else worked though. A lot of the AR needs you to watch a video first, but the video never loads. Good concept with zero follow through.
