Where Is 2012

Introduction to Where Is 2012

Have you stumbled across Where Is 2012 before? It’s one of those little indie surprises that sneaks up on you: part puzzle hunt, part time-travel caper. The story kicks off when you find an old journal tucked behind a museum exhibit, detailing a cryptic countdown to the year 2012 and hinting at a buried secret that could change history. From there, you’re plunged into a globe-trotting mystery, hopping between ancient Mayan ruins, bustling city streets, and hidden underground vaults, all in search of clues that unravel the journal’s riddles.

What’s neat about this game is how it blends brain-teasing puzzles with a light adventure vibe—you’re not just solving math grids or matching tiles, but interacting with objects in the environment and listening to snippets of conversation from NPCs who might hold the next piece of the puzzle. There’s a nice balance between challenging your wits and keeping the story moving: you’ll decode symbols carved into stone walls one moment, then piece together overheard dialogue from two chatty travelers the next. It never overstays its welcome, so even if you’ve only got fifty minutes to play, you can bump up against a few satisfying breakthroughs.

I also love the art style and soundtrack—both lean into that slightly dusty, almost sepia-toned feel of an old diary come to life. There’s a real sense of atmosphere, as if the world around you is trying to whisper its secrets at every turn. By the time you crack the final code and see how all the threads weave together, it feels like you’ve earned a small victory in a clandestine quest. If you’re a fan of low-key explorations with a dash of historical intrigue, Where Is 2012 can be a really fun way to scratch that adventurous itch.
