User reviews

Not worth it!!! At ALL

It was just reapeating not clear at all and nothing happend!defeated the point of the whole journey do NOT recommend!

To complicated

It was unclear and my sisters kept repeating its self even though she did the same as my brother who carried on but it got to complicated so we gave up *NOT* worth it!

Scarily bad

This app is really not good. It’s got potential but one app for EVERY NT property is sheer laziness bearing in mind it was sold to us as a “trail”. The kids kept looking at me as if to ask what they were supposed to be doing. The app accidentally closed down and so I had to go through the ENTIRE thing again which took about 15 minutes. Bring back paper, pencils and clip boards and a good old treasure hunt.

Great afternoon

This app worked perfectly and kept us entertained. My only feedback would be that it seems to be a bit confused about the age range it’s aimed at. The activities and the trail overall is ideal for the younger end of the suggested age range and was a bit too simple for the older end but the boggart in the middle was more for the older ones and might frighten the litter ones. We had an enjoyable afternoon and I’m glad we did it. Would be lovely to see a sequel with perhaps more riddles/ clue hunting elements for the older children.

Awful UX

Terrible UX. The sound did not work for us and if you read the transcript it’s quicker but you still have to wait until the crone has finished speaking before you can interact, which can take ages. You also cannot change your choice after you make it which is very frustrating for children.
