Shortlisted for this year’s Victorian Community History Awards, Misadventure in Little Lon is an AR Game that promises to shake up how we interact with History!

Based on a true crime in Melbourne’s notorious red-light district in 1910, Misadventure In Little Lon is the debut game in the series and the world’s first augmented reality true crime mobile game.

To celebrate History Month, the team behind the game will hold a panel event so join the team discussing the story, characters and development process behind Misadventure In Little Lon. The panel will delve into how augmented reality can enhance other historical stories/precincts and appeal to a broader audience.

  • Carly Godden (chair) – writer, historian, podcaster
  • Emma Ramsay – Game developer, producer
  • Andy Yong – Game developer, artist
  • Michael Shelford – consultant, writer, historian
  • Jenny Samms – descendent of central characters Maud & Ernest Gunter
