At Modernista I was lucky enough to work on a piece of gaming / entertainment content to tie over Dexter fans from season four to five. We developed an 8 week alternate reality gaming experience that allowed fans to enter the world of Dexter and help catch a serial killer known as the Infinity Killer. The game involved a plethora of websites puzzles and codes to solve as well as real world locations, meet ups, video and audio content. We used almost every single media outlet on the internet from youtube to ebay to livestreams to chat clients to interact with our players as they fought against time to try and stop our serial killer. It was a very successful ARG and a lot of fun to make. Though only an intern at the time, I became responsable for creating the gameplay for almost every week of the game, creating a majority of the puzzles and codes that made up a bulk of what our players interacted with.
Our efforts were rewarded:
