HOW TO PLAY
Download Magical Park at home to ensure your device is compatible. Your mobile device needs to have 4 in-built sensors: GPS, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and a Compass and mobile data or Wifi.
Go to your nearest Magical Park (Check inside the app on the map) and walk to the pink marker on your game map screen. The marker will turn into a yellow portal when you are close enough to the park centre.
Make sure you follow the calibration instructions and spin your device at least twice around each of its 3 axes. Repeat anytime if you feel the rotation of the device isn’t quite right.
Your GPS accuracy may be initially too low. Once your GPS accuracy is below 15m, you are safe to play in the park. If your GPS was turned off or is set to low accuracy, it can take 5-10min to warm up within a 15m GPS accuracy reading.

REVIEWS
“Best thing to have happened on our field. Engaging Learners who have difficulty in the class programme has been amazing.”
“With their device in hand, my 6-year-old twin boys went off on a discovery and saw their park in a whole new way. Even this cynical mum felt a rush when a T-Rex started running towards us! Great fun.”
“Given the number of distractions kids have to stay indoors this is a great way to get the family out into the parks and enjoy the fresh air while playing their games.”
ABOUT Geo AR Games
Magical Park started because a little 7-year-old girl had lost all interest in playgrounds and was hooked on digital games. To get her excited about going to the park again, we introduced fairies, dragons and dinosaurs to our local parks. Once at the park, she rediscovered how much fun it was to ride a bike or climb trees and lots of children have followed here example since then.
