Alex is Missing
20 year-old Alex Valegro has gone missing from UCF's campus after posting some strange content online and mentioning to friends that she felt someone watching her. What happened to Alex and where is she now? In this ARG, players will have to investigate across several websites and into Alex's personal drive to figure out what she was doing in her last days seen and how it all connects to her disappearance.
Her friend Olivia has set up a website to gain awareness and information about the case and she's requesting your help in the search.
"Alex is Missing" is a collaborative web-based Alternate Reality Game (ARG) developed by a team of 15 students from UCF's Digital Media Master's Program. Can you figure out what happened to Alex, and can you do it without risking your own safety?

I can't wait for this thrilling mystery to unfold!
You look like the type of person who'd enjoy this jam: WOW JAM
They have a very interesting platform and are even offering prizes xD
I am so stuck and Olivia always writes me the same things about conventions, which I have solved hours ago. Possible spoiler:
I'm stuck on the draconis squamae website. I'm logged in and a level 2 member, but I have no idea what to do now. Am I supposed to access the apple-folder now? Am I supposed to upload a Trojan-virus? Why can I activate a VPN? why is alex' description on that website different from the one we see in the beginning? No idea.
Well thanks so much for sticking with it and for the feedback! I’m tweaking some stuff so Olivia’s messages will feel more helpful and less spammy.---
As for Draconis Squamae Level 2, you’re on the right track (no Trojan-virus upload required). Try revisiting the “do not associate” list on the club page – something there might be helpful for the last folder password. Some of the other stuff will make sense later though :)
If you get stuck again, feel free to ask anything on our Discord as well!- https://discord.gg/Rujg2JQN2R
I get a google 403 error when I enter login info for the google drive. Is that supposed to happen?
hmm... id try reloading the page :)
yes
Most of Olivia's Reddit posts were removed. I think this harms the ARG a lot.
unfortunately the mods never responded to our request to have the posts put back. I can assure though that the missing posts are not integral to the gameplay, only our marketing strategy :(
