Vancouver Mysteries is the city’s first mystery game company, bringing digital and in-person games to life for Vancouverites to enjoy at home or off-the-couch. This fall, with the weather permitting, there are thrilling outdoor mystery games running every 30 minutes of every day in downtown Vancouver — the perfect opportunity to get to know your city (and your loved ones) just a bit better.
Once you choose your game of interest, you’ll be instructed to meet at a secret starting location by your “game operator” (Agent X if you will) who will provide you with everything you need to embark on your quest. Armed with maps and clues, will you be able to solve the mysteries?
