Help us test our new interactives!

Can you spare half an hour for the Royal Museum Project?

One of the many exciting new aspects of the redeveloped National Museum of Scotland will be a range of new interactive computer games and learning resources. These will be available in various galleries to help visitors find out more about the objects on display and understand their significance.

To make sure these interactives are easy and fun to use, we test them as they’re being developed. Therefore, throughout this summer, we’ll be inviting visitors to the National Museum of Scotland to try out early prototypes of the interactives.

So next time you’re visiting, keep an eye out for our volunteers if you’re interested in taking part. This Wednesday and Thursday (30 June and 1 July), we’ll be testing early versions of an interactive that helps you compose your own music using clips from our world music archive, and a game that allows you to control the reintroduction of wolves to Scotland.

Your comments on our games and resources can make all the difference!
