This looks amazing but I'd appreciate an autoplay button or free walk + look, the scrollwheel monorail handcranking makes the exploration rather frustrating.


Agreed. The content is great but UX is terrible so I quit early. Scrolling is not a good way to initiate action and is extremely annoying to deal with.


It’s so bad. What a waste of great material.


Arrow keys and page-down don’t work either :/

There’s a set of accessibility options; maybe they could add some alternative navigation methods.


Arrow keys work for me. But it's still strange because when you keep it pressed often nothing happens for a time and then abruptly you move too quickly.


Right! It's like a museum with mandatory guided tours.


I agree. What worked for me, was using chrome dev tools, then emulating a tablet so i could drag up/down to 'walk' and sideways to look around.


It's not even working on my phone (Android + chromium), just stuck at 100.


Likewise (tablet).

Tried it on a PC. It's close to useless, unfortunately.

Too bad, these other efforts elsewhere to create 3D models of ancient cities work fine both on a PC and Android tablets.


On some sections you can drag the mouse to change point of view.
