Make sure you have the JOIN CODE that you received for your activity.
Make sure participants’ phone batteries are as fully charged as possible. This helps ensure smooth participation and reduces the risk of interruptions.
If you wish, you can prepare for the activity in advance as follows:
It is recommended that all participants install the free ActionTrack app (Google Play / App Store) on their phones before the event.
Participants can be divided in advance into teams (= clans) that together use four mobile devices. Each mobile device can be shared by 1–3 team members so that everyone can clearly see the tasks. The recommended team size is 4–8 people.
Team captains can also be appointed in advance.
The above steps will speed up the start of the event and ensure that everyone can get going smoothly.
Welcome to The Four Mystery Box Escape game! Split into teams and choose a captain whose phone will act as the team’s main device. The captain installs the ActionTrack app, downloads the game using the join code, creates a clan for the team, and joins the clan. From the remaining team members, choose three who also install the ActionTrack app, download the game, and join the clan after the captain. Once the teams are ready, you can start the adventure. Enjoy the game!
Dear participants, a warm welcome to The Four Mystery Box Escape game! Before we get started, we need to do the following:
Teams (= clans) use a total of four mobile devices. Each mobile device can be shared by 1–3 team members so that everyone can clearly see the tasks. The recommended team size is 4–8 people.
Team sizes may vary – that is not a problem. Choose a team setup that feels right for you.
The captain uses the team’s main mobile device (phone or tablet).
The device should be:
relatively new
fully charged
equipped with a properly functioning GPS
Note: The game cannot be continued on another device, so make sure the device works properly before starting.
Download the free ActionTrack app from Google Play or the App Store. Grant all requested permissions so the game functions correctly.
Captain:
Downloads the game using the join code
Enters their player name
Creates a clan for the team (Clan view → “Create new”)

If the password is forgotten right at the beginning, the captain can easily create a new clan with a new password.

As is typical with mystery boxes and escape rooms, this game requires a trial-and-error approach. If you are unsure, feel free to try things out.
The introductory-level tasks are designed to help players learn the basic rules and mechanics of the game, while later levels focus on testing teamwork and collaboration skills.
On the first level, players learn the basic rules and mechanics of the game. One player is responsible for submitting the correct answers, while the others check the rules and support them.
The second level challenges players to function as a true team. In the “Wall of Lights” puzzle, everyone has an equally important role — success depends on cooperation and clear communication.
On the final level, players face four Mystery Boxes, each locked with four locks, and opening them requires multiple sequential steps. Players can choose whether to focus on opening a single box or attempt to open several at the same time.
Only players with the correct numbers can trigger the next steps in unlocking each lock.
At each stage, there are puzzles and challenges designed for one, two, or four players. To succeed, the team must carefully plan the order of their actions — taking into account which players are needed at each step.
