Misteri a Vulpera – The Vulpera Mistery
The riddle
Hotel guest Henry Wells has gone in search of the secret of the mineral water and has not turned up since. The hotel manager Josef Berger is beside himself with worry and asks for your help in the search for the missing guest Henry. You set off on the trail of the mineral water and immerse yourself in the history of spa tourism in Vulpera in 1908.
How does it work?
Instructions
- App: To solve the puzzle, you need the free app ‘The Secret of Vulpera’. Thanks to AR (augmented reality) technology, the Hotel Waldhaus and the characters appear on the smartphone screen through the camera.
- Execution: Check in advance whether the old spa trail from Vulpera to Nairs is open. The trail is usually open from April to November.
- Signs: On the way you will find signs with objects on them. These signs must be scanned with your mobile phone to solve further puzzles and find clues. The clues from the people will help you track down the disappearance of Henry Wells.
- Mistery fun: You can talk to the people working around the forest house. They appear on the screen when you look around after you have scanned a marker. You can have natural conversations with them using the keyboard or the voice function. Information from the characters will lead you further on the trail of Henry Wells.
- Duration: The experience lasts between 45 - 90 minutes. You will cover a distance of 1.7 - 2 km to the finish.
- Starting point: The puzzle starts at the Kurpark Vulpera, the former location of the Hotel Waldhaus. (Note: With the guest card you can travel comfortably and free of charge by post bus).
- Final destination: The mystery is solved in the former spa town of Nairs.
Trail
Equipment
You will need the following tools to solve the mistery:
- Smartphone: An internet-enabled smartphone with a working camera for the puzzle fun. (The smartphone will be used intensively during the puzzle fun, a full battery is an advantage).
- Good footwear: Good footwear is recommended, with which you can walk well for 45 - 90 minutes on different paths.
Explanation.
Augmented Reality
Augmented reality (AR) is a computer- or technology-supported extension of real perception - a kind of interplay between digital and analogue life.
This can work simply via the camera of a smartphone. Additional information about the surroundings is shown on the display. The form of AR in which the live image is often overlaid with lines or additional information is well known. In our example, the environment is enhanced with the Hotel Waldhaus and the people working around the hotel, as well as some objects.
In principle, an AR extension can appeal to several human senses, but it is normally a visual representation.
