Work together to survive the harsh conditions of Mars in this 15-minute educational adventure.
Location-based entertainment provider SPREE Interactive is launching a brand new multiplayer free-roam experience which tasks groups of players working together to complete a series of challenges in an effort to survive the unforgiving surface of mars.
Developed in partnership with European mass media broadcaster ProSibenSat.1, VFX studio Pixomondo, and the Forum Schwanthalerhohe mall in Munich, Germany, Mission to Mars is a 15-minute educational adventure with support for up to 10 players at one time. At the start of each game groups are broken up into smaller teams and assigned specific roles.
Instead of using motion controllers, players interact by looking at specific objects, triggers, and clues. Positional tracking allows players to explore their VR environment by physically walking around the play space.
Each activity, whether it be completing a task or discovering a clue, is designed to educate participants on the many dangers of Mars, such as massive sound storms. In addition to the game experience developed by Pixomondo, Mission to Mars will be accompanied by narrative from ProSieben’s Galileo, a popular science show.
“Adding the SPREE Arena and the Mission to Mars experience to our Summer Holiday offerings is very exciting for us,” said Lars Sammann, centre manager of the Forum Schwanthalerhohe. “We are always looking for fun and unique ways to attract new guests. It’s a great family experience and we are sure our guests will be delighted.”
Mission to Mars will be open to the public August 6th to the 31st at the Forum Schwanthalerhohe shopping mall in Munich, Germany. Powered by SPREE Arena LBE technology, the experience can be installed at a variety of other locations, such as museums, libraries, and other educational institutions with enough floor space.
