In the Footsteps of Kings
In the Footsteps of Kings is an Augmented reality App aimed at visitors in Fife. In the Footsteps of Kings[1] follows Jess the Jester around 9 sites in the Mid-Fife area and gives visitors of all ages the opportunity to interact with characters and take part in a number of fun activities tailored to each of the nine locations. The app was created by AliveLab/Mardles[2] and the project was led by Fife Tourism Partnership with funding from Scottish Enterprise.
Sites launched in phase 1 were Markinch Church, Ravenscraig Castle, Lochore Castle, Falkland Palace, Falkland Estate and Aberdour Castle.
A further 3 sites were launched in November 2019 at Dunfermline's Carnegie Library & Galleires, Burntisland Seafront and MacDuffs Castle in East Wemyss. The app is free to download to smartphones from the App Store,[3] Google Play[4] and Amazon Apps.[5]
In November 2019, the app won a national award for innovation at Family Attractions Expo in Birmingham.
