The Lost Expedition
Tuesday, July 21st (2:00—4:00 PM)
Something has gone wrong… and time is running out.
In The Lost Expedition, a team of explorers set out on a top-secret mission and never returned. Their last message warned of a hidden valley filled with dangerous dinosaurs—and a discovery that could change the fate of humanity. Now, it’s up to you to finish what they started.
Search the abandoned expedition site, uncover hidden clues, and solve the puzzles they left behind. But be careful—this place isn’t as empty as it seems. If you can’t crack the mystery in time, the expedition’s discovery could be lost forever… along with your chance to save mankind.
Do you have what it takes to uncover the truth and make it out?
