Londonderry, November 1688:
The Earl of Tyrconnell has moved Lord Mountjoy and his regiment from Derry to Dublin, the town has been left undefended ...

The Siege is an interactive, location-based, mobile app set around the walls of Londonderry. The Siege app combines GPS and mobile technology with contemporary real life accounts and dramatized reactions from townspeople to bring the key events of the 1689 Siege to life.

You can experience the Siege in three ways.

1. Play the espionage game on Derrys walls (requires GPS)

Can you survive the 1689 siege as a Jacobite spy? Your mission is to look after Jacobite interests in the garrison town of Londonderry. Walk along the walls and collect any useful conversations you overhear. Remember to keep on the move or youll attract the attention of the guards and be thrown in prison.
The app will guide you to the start of the game at Hangmans Bastion which is located between Butchers Gate and Magazine Gate on Derrys walls. There you will be given your mission. Walk along the walls in an ANTI-CLOCKWISE direction (towards Butchers Gate) and collect the eyewitness accounts you overhear. Use the cannon in the bastions to send your collected accounts into the Jacobite camp.

2. Listen to the audio timeline on Derrys walls (requires GPS)

Listen to eyewitness accounts of the Siege of Derry on location. Walk along the atmospheric city walls and listen to events where they unfolded.
