Maretarium
The virtual tour of the Maretarium is powered by a mobile application that lets players explore Finnish waters through quizzes and mini-games. The app is available for download on the Google Play Store.
A central part of the Maretarium’s interactive tour is exploring Finnish fish and water through various mini-games. In the Maretarium, a player can find mini-games or quizzes during a traditional round by scanning the QR code application. The app has been developed for Maretarium school groups, but the game is freely downloadable for all visitors.
The idea came from a course assignment for Xamk students that interested Maretarium. Xamk students worked with Maretarium on the project.
The project was launched in April 2018 and the game was released for download in October 2018.
Take a tour and play games at the Maretarium in Sapokka, Kotka.
