Open the quest

Teams get a case briefing, then investigate the city freely in the spirit of Mythos Tales. Everything runs in a phone browser.

  • Phonebook: a list of names and addresses. Many are red herrings, decoys or just atmospheric residents.
  • Map: a map of Novi Sad that starts blank. Tapping within a few metres of a real building reveals what happens there.
  • Gates: some places hold a locked element that needs a password found elsewhere in the city.
  • Budget: each team can visit only so many locations before it must commit to the final quiz. Best score wins.
  • Behind the scenes: an admin area for authoring cases, a live leaderboard, achievements, hints and team messages.

It was played once, on the evening it was made for. The app stays up so the demo case can still be explored.
