I don't know how many of you are coming into the show knowing the backstory, but in case you don't, it's based on a real game that was played in San Francisco from 2008-2011.

The Elsewhere Public Works Agency was an alternate reality game (ARG) that had players explore San Francisco and solve puzzles to help the eponymous group against their rival, the Jejune Institute, in the fight against false Nonchalance.

Here is a very comprehensive (and very long) walkthrough of one player's experience.

Now, it might seem a little odd to adapt such an interactive experience into a television show, which is often passively consumed...so, of course, it's not just a show.

In October, r/NewNoologyNetwork began investigating strange flyers found on various campuses in the US and Canada that claimed they were looking for volunteers to test a project based around recording dreams. It was eventually discovered that this new ARG was connected to the upcoming show, Dispatches From Elsewhere, and seemed to be intended to bring the interactive element from the original game to the television adaptation.

A lot has happened since the flyers were first found, but if you want to join in on the game, why not drop by our subreddit to catch up on what's been happening the past few months, and get involved!

You were meant for more.
