Mystic Investigation

This is the sequel to Mystic Project. Now for anyone that has played Mystic Project, they will know that this game is a great game. Huge space, nice puzzles, fabulous acting, scares, cinematics, …

Does the sequel follow in a similar way? Absolutely not. It’s still an amazing game but nothing like I was expecting.

This game couldn’t be any more different from the first.

Going straight into Mystic Investigation from Mystic Project, we were a little bit tired and as equally thrown with the vast contrast of the experiences. We soon got going but then the environment and story took on a completely different turn, one that none of us saw coming.

Role play is key and absolutely vital, so be prepared. The more you get in the more you will get out and be prepared to push the boundaries. Get into the role and let yourself go. If you don’t like RP, you may not like this game. This is your game and you can play it like that, listen to your instructions and take them as literally as possible.

I really can’t say too much more about the game itself without giving away spoilers but I feel you just need to play.

Big shout out to the GM, some fantastic acting. Absolutely wonderful.

I can sometimes be heard shouting: What am I doing with my life? This is usually when a game has me wondering what other hobby would have me so deeply immersed, doing crazy stuff in sometimes places so far away from home and normal life. This game took it to a whole new level. Other phrases were: Is this for real? Are you serious? What are we all doing?

I was actually crying with laughing (this is quite normal for me) however when the rest of the team are doing the same it becomes very surreal. I have never seen a team laugh so much. This was our final game of the trip and such a hilarious finale.

I think I actually preferred this game and I definitely had more fun but I’m not sure it can really be compared to Mystic Project.

I’m really looking forward to returning to play the next game in this sequence. I cannot wait to finish our journey.

Mystic Corporation have created something truly unique here.
