ex Labs Inc. announced on July 31 an immersive mystery event at Shibuya Sakura Stage, the first installment of its Facility Utilization Business. Participants investigate a Reality Alteration Note by moving through the facility, interviewing staff, and collecting clues. The event runs on six dates in September and October, with tickets at 4,000 yen.
The event, titled Uwasabanashi Investigation Committee case1: Stationery That Alters Reality, casts participants as new investigators probing a note said to rewrite the future. They move through Shibuya Sakura Stage, interview staff, and gather hidden clues to solve the mystery. The experience lasts about 70 minutes, has no horror elements, and requires logical thinking rather than prior knowledge.
ex Labs is partnering with Tokyu Land, 404 Not Found, and TSUTAYA BOOKSTORE Shibuya Sakura Stage. The company leads planning, production, and operation, monetizing through ticket sales so the facility avoids initial costs and customer-attraction risks. The goal is to turn shared areas and unused time into destinations that increase dwell time and foot traffic to in-building stores.
