  This article brings together two distinct, but related perspectives on
playful museum experiences: Critical play and hybrid design. The article
explores the challenges involved in combining these two perspectives, through
the design of two hybrid museum experiences that aimed to facilitate critical
play with/in the collections of the Museum of Yugoslavia and the highly
contested heritage they represent. Based on reflections from the design process
as well as feedback from test users we describe a series of challenges:
Challenging the norms of visitor behaviour, challenging the role of the
artefact, and challenging the curatorial authority. In conclusion we outline
some possible design strategies to address these challenges.
