History Adventures alternatives

History Adventures turns history learning into a series of choices and consequences, with characters guiding learners through historical settings. Its Empires & Interconnections installment covers 1450–1750 through six researched characters across four continents and is designed to align with AP World History standards. Learners can explore historical documents, 360° panoramas, animated illustrations and interactive infographics, then complete decision-making activities and assessments. The series is free to use in any setting and spans web, mobile, Mac and VR formats, though individual installments have more specific device availability.
