The Concept
The Concept
Mithras is an immersive spatial experience built around themes of crisis, belief, and transformation. Set in the year 252, the project places visitors in the role of Roman soldiers during the Plague of Cyprian, guiding them through a narrative of fear, collapse, and eventual liberation through Mithras. The aim was to turn visitors from passive observers into active participants within a mythological story world.

The Experience
The Experience
The journey unfolds through a sequence of dark, atmospheric spaces supported by projection mapping, spatial audio, and controlled lighting. In the early stages, visitors encounter the spread of the plague, social collapse, and growing despair through a linear narrative route. This emotional build-up is designed to create tension and prepare users for the final transformation.
In the final stage, the experience shifts into an interactive Mithraeum environment. Here, visitors must complete the seven initiation levels of Mithras by finding symbols, mottos, and hidden clues throughout the space. As each stage is completed, the environment gradually illuminates, turning progression into both a narrative and spatial reward.

the system
the system
The project combines spatial storytelling with digital interaction systems to create a responsive and trackable visitor experience.
Visitors participate in groups and interact with the space through mobile-based platforms such as Goosechase and Actionbound, allowing the experience to extend beyond physical space into a digital layer.
The system enables:
real-time progress tracking through mobile interaction
reporting of discovered symbols and clues
integration of scavenger hunt mechanics into spatial experience
optional social sharing and leaderboard-based competition
As visitors complete each initiation level, the environment gradually transforms, using light as feedback to reflect progression within the narrative.
The project brings together:
spatial storytelling
interactive technology
game design principles
to create a hybrid experience where narrative, space, and user interaction continuously respond to one another.
