A platform for mystery game players to find their clanship

Based on the user research conducted in the first stage of the investigation, the problem statement is defined as follows:
“How might we make a devoted script murder game fan who wants to plan 约本 activities (who) address the problem of scattered information, lack of source about 约本 activities and online community (what) so that she/he can realize 约本 activities with other players (why)?”

Currently, no useful information can be found about 约本 in Wenzhou. The search engine returns useless information that has nothing to do with 约本. At the same time, in Dianping there is a lack of 约本 information in the case of Wenzhou. Therefore, the persona has to contact venues, add WeChat and ask for information. Sometimes they have to add more than three WeChat accounts to finally realize a 约本 activity.There is no public online community for script murder game lovers in Wenzhou. Communities of 约本 are always built by venue owners and players’ choices have been limited. What’s worse, these groups are always disordered, and people chat about unrelated things. The target persona found it disturbing to be added to this kind of groups with the aim of realizing 约本 activities. Thus, the proposed solution will focus on the development of a community (paid subscription based) platform that serves to connect murder/mystery game lovers in Wenzhou with local murder/mystery game club owners/organizers. So more choice of scripts and venues can be made available to the devoted players. At the same time, club organizers can ensure enough players can be recruited to play the games on a more predictable schedule and generate more stable income. Therefore, venue owners are always looking for platforms where they can help their customers organize 约本 activity. They also make use of the platform to let their exclusive scripts known to the public.
