Folk Secrets

Folk Secrets was an Oklahoma-history based treasure hunt, presented as a show on Facebook. But unlike most TV shows, viewers actually participated by hunting for the treasure with a time-traveling Folk Secrets Codex AR app. The hunt spanned three seasons beginning in June, 2017 and culminating in July, 2018. The first two seasons centered on the Cleveland County area with Season Three covering the entire Oklahoma City metropolitan area. Each week viewers watched the latest episode of Folk Secrets on Facebook and then went hunting for clues to find the treasure. Along the way they scanned signs, markers and landmarks with the Codex App to reveal augmented reality clues and open time portals, where their knowledge of Oklahoma history would be necessary to make progress.
