Project Hex-Arcane

Client: Secret Cinema, Red Rock Productions

Event: Arcane Secret Cinema Experience

Project Hex broke the scale for immersive theater. The cinematic dreamers at Secret Cinema envisioned a production that toed the line between theatrical escape room and gamer’s playground. This massive project spanned 26,000 square feet of LA warehouse space and hosted nearly 300 people per show. 

Spectacle took their vision and designed 15 games to meld seamlessly into the lush immersive environment. They spanned every size from small secret keypads and large spinning wheel puzzles that required multiple to manipulate to entire rooms full of escape room quality puzzle paths. 

Materiality and plot integration topped Secret Cinema’s priority list. Every game, artifact, button, and lock matched the vibrant steampunk world of Arcane, and every game had a function that naturally fit within the world.
