The Lost Museum 3D interactive tour i thought was both very fun and informative. It helped to show what people of the 1800s saw as entertainment and what things interested them. As i went through the game I thought that many of the exhibits were very interesting and definitely gave an accurate depiction of what life during the 1800s was like.
The on complaint that I do have about the site was that i felt as if all the information that i found out was out of order and not delivered to me in an organized manner. It was difficult for me to figure out who burned the museum down because all of the information was scattered through out the museum and it was slightly frustrating. Luckily for me i did eventually figure out who the culprit was but for those who didn’t play the game i wont ruin it for you =).
Over all i thought that the interactive activity was useful in teaching about the 1800s and in delivering its message. I would recommend this site for more then just an academic tool but for a means for entertainment… After all wasn’t Barnum known as the showman?
