Overview
The tour operation my earliest See Reality work fed into: five mixed-reality experiences along the Freedom Trail — Sons of Liberty, Five Shots at Midnight, a 17th-century Faneuil Hall market, Paul Revere’s Ride, and the Bunker Hill cannon, which teaches a visitor to load and fire a field gun by hand, in order. It sells as a two-hour guided tour rated 4.9 out of 5 across 83 TripAdvisor reviews.
Everything is registered to the real place: the market lines up with a colonnade that is still standing, the cannon sits on the plaza’s actual bricks, and tourists who paid for nothing walk through the frame while a guest works the gun.
My part: the Boston Massacre experience the tour grew from, in August 2024, then Five Shots at Midnight and Paul Revere’s Ride as their main developer; the cannon’s step-by-step firing logic; setup, animation and dialogue for the market; and the Quest conversion of Sons of Liberty, built by another developer on the team.
