Outdoor escape game for companies

A mission of about three hours through the historic centre of Évora, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. With an iPad and an ActionPack full of agent gadgets, teams solve puzzles and work together to complete the mission before time runs out.

The mission

Évora as the board. The world as the mission.

The version for companies uses Operation Mindfall, a spy mission that turns the streets and hidden corners of the historic centre into a board full of mysteries. The puzzles are analogue, digital or augmented reality. Strategy, cooperation and curiosity are the key.

At the end, an individual reflection questionnaire helps each participant think about the experience and the skills the team brought into play. The organisation then receives a report analysing the reflections.

Message to the agents

We are W.I.S.E., an independent international intelligence organisation working to protect the world. Spider Technologies has developed a mind-control virus that has already infected 20% of the world’s population. To stop it, we created Operation Mindfall and chose you as our agents.

Your mission: obtain the antidote and stop Spider Tech. Time is limited. Can you do it?
