Get Started
Three steps to the gate.
Ilion is free to download for Windows. No VR headset required — though if you have one, the castle supports it.

Log In & Walk Through
Sign in with your Squirrel Wisdom Academy account, and you'll arrive at the hub — the start of every visit.

Two Ways In
A headset if you have one. A screen if you don't.
Ilion runs the same castle either way — sit at a regular screen and use a keyboard and mouse, or step in with a compatible VR headset for a more physical sense of actually being there. Neither is the "real" version; both are.
