Every year, I make my family an Easter egg hunt using ARG elements, like sending emails, searching the web, & decoding clues. This year, since we couldn't meet up, I just made an actual ARG instead!

It started with everyone receiving a mysterious lockbox in the post. Each one also came with an individual clue, which meant they had to work together to solve the case.

So, everyone got together on Zoom, and using articles, police reports & letters, they uncovered the story of... The Missing Locksmith.
