When the Countdown Starts
Your Mission begins

The first emails stop arriving and the phones fall silent. Screens flicker, servers crash and no system responds. Even your usually reliable IT specialists are completely at a loss. Panic spreads and the tension rises with every minute.

Suddenly a mysterious video message appears on every screen. A shadowy figure begins to speak in a distorted voice. The message is clear. A hacker group has taken control of your company. All data will be deleted and every system destroyed beyond repair. But the hackers love a good game and give you one very last chance. In front of you stand locked boxes that hide the only code that can save you. Crack them before the countdown runs out.

Each box contains several levels. With every puzzle you solve, you unlock a new one. At first every team seems to be fighting on its own, as everyone works on their own box. Then comes the surprising twist. Bit by bit it becomes clear to everyone that no box can be cracked alone. All teams are part of a bigger game. Clues pass from group to group and knowledge is shared across teams. Going it alone turns into real collaboration. Only together can you assemble the abort code in the grand finale. When the countdown finally stops, it is not one single team that cheers. Everyone cheers together.

Personal consultation for your 
perfect event

There is one moment in this game that I look forward to every time. At first each team works on its own, then it becomes clear that the only way forward is together. From then on, the whole atmosphere in the room changes. Barriers between teams and departments disappear and everyone pulls in the same direction. A little tip: Hold on to clues that seem useless to you. They might be worth their weight in gold to others.
