Ratings and Reviews
Very cool and informational
If you’re visiting Cahokia Mounds, you might wonder if this app is worth the $5. I certainly think it is. It’s cool how it overlays what the city looked like hundreds of years ago over what it looks like now. It does so in a way that was easy to use. You have to have headphones if you want to do the audio tour part, so bring those!
Ideas for things to add to the app would be to include guides for elsewhere around the Cahokia site - even if it’s just a simple trail guide with no fancy AR.
Adds a lot to a Cahokia visit
This app is well done, it adds video animations, narrations, photos and text to tell the story of the mounds area as it was during Native American days. There are two tours, one for Monks Mound and another for the village area. Both involve walking along paved paths. Monks Mound has a staircase to access the top.
Great visit
I’ve been to Cahokia on many occasions, but never like this! This app brings the site to life. It was easy to use, and I feel like I have been able to truly experience the the history and the culture of this important site.
