How is Mysterium doing financially? Is this going to bankrupt the convention?
Overall, we’re doing pretty well.Obviously, between refunds and hotel fees, we’re going to take a hit to our funds by moving to an online convention, but thanks to sales and very generous donations from last year we should be fine.
Did this review miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids’ healthy self-esteem and positive, diverse representations in books, TV shows, and movies.
Can the whole family enjoy Mysterium?
Mysterium is a fun deduction board game that family members can very much enjoy playing together.Mysterium is a fun deduction board game that family members can very much enjoy playing together.
How/where will online Mysterium be hosted?
We don’t have all the details yet, but we will likely base it on what we did last year (Zoom+Discord+Twitch/Youtube).There have been many advances in online convention hosting, though, so we’ll look into other options.
What is Mysterium Escape Adventure?
Mysterium is an engaging, interactive experience that challenges all of your senses.In the heart of downtown Boone, you will experience a live-action adventure like no other.
Can I host a panel/event or otherwise help out with the online Mysterium?
Yes! We’re not ready to take in your ideas just yet, but please check back soon.
What about t-shirts and other swag?
We will be selling and shipping t-shirts again this year.If you got one with your registration, it will be refunded and you will be able to re-buy it through our web store at the same price.
Is it any good?
You can’t help but think of the board game Clue when playing this app — and that’s deliberate.Mysterium: The Board Game is like an advanced version of that children’s game, designed for an older audience, though it sometimes enrages those same players.The ease of a match largely depends on the other players, since it’s multiplayer-focused.And a bad clue card can easily send you in the wrong direction.
Can We Use One Clairvoyance Token More Than Once in Mysterium?
No.One token can be used only once throughout the game and therefore, should be used only when players are sure about their guess.
What about transportation that I booked?
Please check with your carrier for details on cancellations.
How does Mysterium score on our “Let’s Play Again” game meter?
Mysterium scores very high on our “let’s play again” game meter.Mysterium scores very high on our “let’s play again” game meter.Actually we should clarify that.Actually we should clarify that.It’s more like an, “I want to be the ghost!” call because everyone wants to try their hand at being the ghost.It’s more like an, “I want to be the ghost!” call because everyone wants to try their hand at being the ghost.
What is MYST?
MYST is the utility token at the heart of Mysterium Network.This cryptocurrency acts like digital fuel, powering various functions and applications while keeping the network secure and decentralized.
Have you considered postponing the con until later this year?
We are investigating that option, but we have no useful news about that.
Should You Buy Mysterium?
Mysterium might not quite live up to its reputation but I thought it was a very good game.Mysterium basically takes your typical whodunit gameplay from Clue and puts a twist on it.Players have to figure out the correct suspect, location, and weapon but all they have to go on are vague clues given by the victim.One player needs to use abstract pictures to get players to guess the correct suspects, locations and weapons and eventually catch the killer.Meanwhile the other players have to analyze these abstract pictures to determine what cards they point towards.I have played quite a few different deduction games and I can honestly say that I haven’t played one quite like Mysterium before.The game is quite creative combining the picture analysis from a game like Dixit with the deduction mechanics of a game like Clue.These two mechanics might not share a lot in common but they work really well together creating a really fun cooperative experience.In the right group the theme as well as the components do a really good job supporting the gameplay.Mysterium does rely on a decent amount of luck at times though as you can’t win the game if you don’t get the right vision cards at the right times.There is also the potential for there to be quite a bit of downtime for the psychic players if the ghost player takes a long time to pick which pictures they will give to the players.
How much will the online convention cost?
As with last year, the online convention will be free! It is likely that t-shirt sales can cover our costs, and we want to make sure the convention is accessible to as many people as possible.
Why not just let the people who feel safe attending do so anyway?
Everyone has their own personal level of acceptable risk.However, the FMG Board (which oversees Mysterium) has a responsibility to do what we feel is best to protect the safety of our attendees and the people they will come in contact with (hotel staff, airline workers, food workers, etc).Given that, and the reasons we listed previously, we feel that the risks are too high to hold an official in-person event right now.
Why aren’t you holding an in-person con?
The Covid-19 pandemic is still too out of control right now, and we simply can’t be sure what the situation will look like in July.It’s possible everyone will be vaccinated and everything will be safe; it’s also possible that vaccine delays will happen, or a more dangerous variant will appear.
What Are The Crow Tokens For in Mysterium?
Crow Tokens are simply markers of how many times the ghost discards a hand of 7 cards in a game.Once a hand is discarded, the ghost uses the marker to signify that on the screen.Only three discards are allowed typically.
Why not wait another month or two to decide?
Logistically, we have to start planning for an online event.That takes time and looks different from on-site planning, so we had to make the switch at some point.
What is Mysterium Network?
Mysterium Network is building the world’s largest P2P network to power Web 3 privacy applications.An open source, Swiss-based company founded in 2017, Mysterium is rewiring the internet so it’s secure, free and accessible for all.Mysterium held a token sale through which it raised $18 million USD.
Should I cancel my hotel room?
No, you don’t have to cancel your room reservation.The hotel should do that in a few weeks.If somehow it looks like they aren’t going to do so, we will let you know with plenty of time to cancel.
What Is Mysterium?
Mysterium is a cooperative, theme-based deduction board game that is set in an old town in Scotland.There’s a ghost trapped in the Mysterium Manor from a murder that was never solved in 1890.Players assume the roles of one ghost and several psychics who combine their guessing and interpretation skills to solve clues and find the murderer.
What’s it about?
In MYSTERIUM: THE BOARD GAME, players act either as the ghost of a murder victim or one of up to six psychics hoping to solve that murder by identifying the murderer, the location of the crime, and the murder weapon.The ghost helps players narrow the suspects by sending the psychics visions, represented in the game by cards.They’re never especially clear and require a lot of guesswork by players.Once the player guesses one element of the crime, they move on to the next.If they guess wrong, the ghost sends additional clues.Players have eight turns to guess all three, after which they must guess the ultimate answer — again using clue cards supplied by the ghost.
