ABOUT MYTHQUEST
Created by The Great North Museum: Hancock team
Introduction
Mythquest is a free augmented reality (AR) mobile app quest for families visiting the Great North Museum: Hancock in Newcastle.
The adventure is led by Mary Hancock, a founder of the Hancock Museum, who invites you to join her on a mission to free six rare mythical creatures trapped in prison spells.
The challenge
Guided by the app, you will follow clues to the location of enchanted amulets hidden throughout the museum. Once found, you can use the amulets to release the creatures and unlock your mythical AR rewards.
After your visit, these rewards will remain in your app so you can continue enjoying them at home. To take part, you will need to visit the museum.

Follow clues to find hidden amulets. Hit the scan button to detect the amulet.
Rub away the dirt to reveal your enchanted amulet and save it to your collection to unlock your mythical AR reward.
Saving your enchanted amulet breaks the prison spell and your AR reward is unlocked.
To meet your reward, hit ‘Enable AR’, and your virtual reward will appear in front of you as if it’s in the real world.
