Mysterion: Descent into Hades
Project type
Museum Game
Date
July 2024
Role
Experience Designer and Museum Liaison
Do you have what it takes to join a secret society and meddle in the affairs of the gods?
Mysterion is a responsive theatre experience where guests create a shared narrative through interactive ‘choose your own adventure’-style storytelling. On the night, participants are divided into one of two factions, receive ability cards and a mask, then initiated into the Medusa Society in an opening ritual.
Players are then free to roam the Hellenic Museum, which will be transformed into a tactile, underworld-inspired environment for the night. They can explore the galleries where they'll encounter different figures from ancient Greek myth and history; embark on quests; take part in puzzles, riddles and games to unlock deeper storylines; and interact with fellow initiates.
