About



You will become a monarch butterfly, migrating across the vast landscape. Your experience will be immersive and realistic; experience the true monarch experience using your phone's virtual reality.

Challenging.

As a monarch butterfly, you will migrate across the vast expanse to find your new home. It is your goal to find a milkweed tree and lay eggs so you may pass on the monarch experience to the next generation.

Educational.

In order to survive as a butterfly, you must adapt. Nature selects only the fittest to survive, so you must show all that you've got in order to win. Learn what it's like for a monarch butterfly to survive in the wild.

Realistic.

This isn't an 8-bit Mario game. This is virtual reality. What you see will be dreams turned into reality. Both virtual reality and monarch migrations are truly amazing experiences, so we combined them together to bring you true amazingness.

Accessible.

Welcome to the most accessible form of virtual reality possible: your smartphone. You can soar across the continent in the palm of your hands.
