An escape room made simply of puzzles and riddles… do you know when you spend more than half an hour in front of the mirror picking out an outfit? If you are a man, probably not. Unless you have gone through the tragic experience together with your girlfriend… And you know when, after several trials, you have found the most elegant, fitting and charming outfit to… stay in? An unfinished effort, you will say. As if you were facing an escape room made simply of puzzles and riddles…
Lucky for you, we are here. MysterU’s proposal is the gala evening you’ve been preparing for, the romantic dinner you’ve always dreamed of, the premiere of La Scala!
Taking on a mission with us doesn’t just mean undergoing a series of tests, as if you were going to have to pass a test. There will be those of course, but they will be aimed at something bigger: solving a case.
Wearing a nice dress is nice, and when it fits like a glove it could help boost self-esteem, but it is not enough. Flaunting it on the right occasion is the real pleasure! Similarly, we believe that attempting to solve a series of puzzles and riddles is fun, but only when placed in a larger context.
When you start a mission you will find yourself truly embedded in an investigation: you will be special agents called upon to invest your energies in uncovering the truth and shedding light. You will have to untangle clues, hints and images to grasp the evidence that will help solve the many puzzles and riddles, and ultimately, solve the mystery.
With MysterU, you will have a chance to test yourself, to find out how much your problem-solving ability is developed. You may find yourself decrypting a code, conducting extensive research on the Web, and trying to discover the keyword that allows you to enter the world of the man you are trying to corner. You will therefore need some planning and memory to guide you in your choices; you will need to understand which clues can lead you to the solution of the case and which, on the other hand, only induce a great deal of confusion.
And, as with the dress rehearsal, you will be able to have someone next to you to advise you and support you. You will be a real team involved in the investigation. A team that will have to build itself, have clear roles and have the ability to finalize its work.
It is therefore about purpose: this is what makes MysterU a unique experience. It fully engages the player, challenging him or her to bring to bear his or her puzzle-solving and riddle-solving skills, but also his or her synthesis skills, i.e., the ability to put the puzzle pieces together.
You know when you spend more than half an hour in front of the mirror picking out an outfit? And then, on your way to the event for which you have selected it, found it simply perfect for that occasion? This is the same effect that solving a MysterU case elicits: satisfaction, the knowledge that one’s efforts have turned out to be well used for something meaningful. Because, just as we believe that trying on a suit should not be an end in itself, we think that a simple exercise in logic is not enough to make an experience special.
An evening gown may be beautiful, but, by itself, it does not give excitement. Therefore, it is not simply about puzzles and riddles, but something more.
