Reimagining an escape game. At sea
We reimagined an escape game with The Legend of Daedalus. At the sea! Epic by design this a multi-sensory, innovation-first experience, played across the waters of Kleftiko, Milos. Inspired by the myth of Daedalus, the master inventor of the Labyrinth and symbol of creativity and daring, we turned white cliffs and emerald coves into a living maze where invention opens every path.
We designed and handcrafted water and salt-resistant mystery chests with layered mechanisms and tactile puzzles. As each team uncovered a clue, a mechanism clicked, and a new horizon opened together. One puzzle, one decision, one swim, one wave at a time.
Across 24 boats and 200 participants, the journey unfolded in three phases:
1) Call of the Gods. Athena, Artemis, Apollo, and Poseidon welcome the flotillas, and prep the teams for coordinated action.
2) Trial of Riddles. Time-bound marine missions, precision swims, and on-deck problem-solving unlock fragments of the adventure.
3) Completion of the Ordeal. The final quest yields when leadership, calm judgment, and teamwork align.
This epic game is our end-to-end creation, a testament to our creativity and passion for innovation. We designed the concept and narrative, built the accessories, organized the rules, logistics, safety, and on-water orchestration. Participants called it “the most transformative leadership activity of the last years” and “never felt teamwork like this before.”
