PAX Clues
The booth at PAX is very clearly in-game.

The booth at PAX has been made to look like the room of (can't remember) and there are clues and puzzles everywhere.

We solved a canister puzzle (similar to a cryptex) and got a booklet with strange clues inside.



This puzzle was inside. I'll take more pics of the booth and other stuff later. Any insights?



Edit: Follow me on twitter for more details!

Sorry about that, should be fixed. I posted that from the convention floor in a huge rush, so I'll give a bit more info here.

The booth was a replica of the room on the site, but with a fair bit of additional detail and more papers, books and similar clues. In the center of the table was a sliding puzzle type thing (which, now that I think about it was one of the few things I don't think I documented, seeing as how we solved it so quickly). We solved the puzzle and received a book (made to look like a handwritten journal) with the puzzle I posted above in it (my friend has the book ans is scanning/posting it when he gets back home in a day or two).

We also took dozens of pictures of pages, books, and photographs that were around the room. Again, my friend is going to upload those as soon as he's home in Canada. Most of it seems in-game and very much related, but we were busy documenting it, and didn't take too much time trying to figure it out (though we made a few connections, I'll outline those once we have the pics up to show you what I'm talking about).


OOG for a sec: This feels like a solid launching point for the game. Almost everything in the booth had either in-game fluff or clues about the puzzle. We got photos of as much as we could in the time we had. There was so much attention to detail that I doubt this is a small thing.
