Meta vs Life

A unique hybrid experience, played in-person or online.

Part immersive performance, part escape room, part murder mystery in which the audience play as ghost hunters (in-person), or the recently deceased (online). In Meta vs Life, only by finding ways to work together can audiences solve the mystery of how the dead met their grizzly end. 

In the experience, the living started their ghost tour at a secret location in Cardiff City Centre, before exploring hidden corners of the city. The ‘dead’ joined us from their homes or work stations, in a 90s inspired game console afterlife. 

 

"Genuinely a fantastic experience and a night we'll never forget" – Audience Member.
