    I'd give the experience a 4.5 if I could. Download was easy and fast. Tutorial was helpful. We did the driving experience in Ames IA as opposed to the walking experience. Made 11 stops. Took about 3 hours to complete. Directed to go to a specific address and then answer a question about the building. On 3 of the stops, the address provided didn't match the building so we got the answers wrong. However, in the end, answering the questions either right or wrong didn't make a difference. At each stop, more clues are provided to narrow down the suspects to solve the murder. Objective is to solve the murder rather than getting points by answering the questions about the buildings at each stop. Overall, fun experience and we got to see a city I had never visited before.

    This experience is out of date. The idea was fun, definitely got you around downtown and the dialogue was intriguing, but really out of date experience.
