Where Immersion Meets Scientific Accuracy

With a special focus placed on accuracy, this immersive expedition is the result of a close collaboration between Excurio and the Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle (France).
The Museum's paleontologists, paleobotanists, evolution specialists and bioacousticians all contributed to the project, from script writing to 3D production, as well as the creation of the graphics and sounds.

While Life Chronicles offers a dreamlike, sensitive, and sometimes humorous immersion into the living world, all the information presented has been subject to rigorous scientific research.
