Use Case Scenario

Pre Game:

Rabbit Hole: Business cards with an address (two different addresses) and time will be found scattered across QUT Kelvin Grove.

When players go to said address a video of their respective leaders recruiting them will be shown

At the end of the video the clue for their respective twitter accounts is shown as a flash on the screen.

A copy of the daily newspaper will be placed in the room. The newspaper will hold names of the people kidnapped. This is a subtle clue, which matches up with the next newspaper.

In Game:

Simultaneously both teams received a coded image.

This image when decoded will ask players to send in an image of themselves with their respective fist symbols to a given email address to prove their loyalty.

While this happens, another copy of the newspaper is released through their twitter accounts, which holds another clue that proves association of the kidnapped to Zoe Moretti.

Al’s team is first in receiving an email that informs them about a location and a time where they have to be to vandalise (put up posters and flyers)

Zoe Moretti’s team will receive an email telling them about the vandalism that has taken place and it is their job to stop Al’s team before they go any further. However, they will only arrive at the location after the vandalism to see the city in ruins.

Both teams will also receive and email talking about Al’s past as a criminal

At the location both teams will receive Al’s older publications about Zoe Moretti being a fraud.

Both teams also receive a phone call (from a phone found at the scene) from a very angry and frustrated Al telling them to ‘Look Closer’

Both teams find that Al has vandalised all the web pages seen in the game s far, released a video that gives clues to Zoe Moretti’s secret office (where she does her ‘dealings’)

 

End Game:

At this stage in the game there are three alternate endings based on the choices of the players:

1.     Both teams fail to discover files – Zoe Moretti orders to bomb Al and the hostages

2.     Al’s team discovers the files and in rage bomb Zoe Moretti’s office

3.     Both teams discover the files or agree upon arresting Zoe Moretti

 Receive last newspaper via email to end game.

Something we should all consider…

If you read this blog enough, you’ll notice that I make a distinction between social media and traditional corporate marketing. Social media as I usually explain, is a subset of corporate marketing and corporate marketing is an included aspect of social media but can be completely separate….
