### 2/5 — Amazing idea, poor execution

*2024-06-17*

The idea is great!  Kept my son (9) moving through the museum and motivated to look for things. Unfortunately, most of the items wouldn’t scan (we were in the correct location, but nothing) and several items are no longer on display. I love the idea, but the app needs to be updated.

### 1/5 — Don’t buy it’s just frustrating

*2024-02-18*

Ok so for starters it is hard especially for kids and when you try to scan something it. Doesn’t. Scan which is very frustrating so do NOT buy

### 4/5 — Cloud Anchors Didn’t Trigger for Scans

*2024-02-12*

First off, great idea — ton of fun. Found a few bugs where I couldn’t scan the pieces when I was standing in front of the art on the first floor: lion helmet in arms and armor, Egyptian art 1) hathor, 2) queen in seat, 3) wig with gold. We didn’t make it to the second floor. Honestly one of the best “met”averse ideas I’ve come across. Thanks to all involved.

### 5/5 — Great app for my grandson

*2024-01-20*

We had fun with this! It kept our young one occupied and engaged while we were able to look at works that we wanted to. Had a problem at the Degas dancer area and could not detect the piece, it didn’t blink like the others when we got near it. Thanks for this fun app.

### 5/5 — It’s cool

*2023-12-12*

I saw my kid play this game and he loved it he loves the scavenger aspect of it and it’s for all ages even for kids who don’t play Roblox this app is amazing I highly suggest for your kids to play it

### 1/5 — Only in New York my son is disappointed

*2023-09-05*

This being in NY hurt my sons feelings because we’re no where near there can you please do this in other museums around the country to get other kids excited to see art please?

### 5/5 — Best museum scavenger hunt, ever!

*2023-08-10*

This was such a fun experience! My kids absolutely loved exploring The Met with this app and collecting Replicas. It kept them entertained for hours as we wandered galleries searching for hidden art to take into Roblox. 

Download before you go for best results service at The Met can be spotty.

### 5/5 — Great Experience at the Met!

*2023-08-06*

Love the idea of finding Roblox artifacts around the the Met. Its easy an fun just a lot of ground to cover. That being said some really cool stuff to bring over.
