AGENTS OF DISCOVERY – MOBILE GAME
Agents of Discovery is an educational tech platform and app that uses the latest in augmented reality (AR) to get youth and families active and engaged with the world around them. Players assume the role of a secret "Agent" on a "Mission" as they complete site-specific, geo-triggered challenges created by programming staff at Library and Recreation Services. Think Pokémon GO, but much safer and more educational!
Agents of Discovery is best played using WiFi or cellular connection, but missions can be downloaded before venturing outside to play. Once you are on location, simply open the mission to get started! To download the Agents of Discovery app FREE, visit either the Google Play store on Android or the App Store on iOS, or click below.
