Eduventure(I) was developed and evaluated as a prototype in 2004/2005. The game involved the castle Marksburg during the 30 years war (around the year 1630). Scientific interest contained the use of AR and VR technology in situated, game-based learning contexts.
Eduventure(II) is being developed since 2006. The game involves the Prussian fortress Ehrenbreistein during the German Revolution in 1848.
