Tutorial Hell? Want to get hands on quickly to explore a toolset? Looking to spice up your world with a little mystery?
Have we got an experience for you.
Introducing a new heroine for the ages: Clara Denari, Master Detective. Join her as she prowls through Boston, recovering stolen property by solving the mysteries left by the nefarious Dr. Chiaro Obscuro.
This villain, who is both a meticulous kleptomaniac AND someone with considerable long-term memory issues, has done it again. His habit is to hide his ill-gotten gains in obscure places, leaving a trail of clues that only he will understand. This time he’s stolen something valuable and has hidden it…but where?
It’s up to Clara to save the day. By deciphering each clue, she may be able to find the stolen property…but it’s up to you to help her!
Start your adventure here!
Follow the trail in the story, picking up objects and storing them in inventory. Use Cloudinary transformations to clean a piece of string, brighten an image to reveal hidden text, use image refiners to tidy up lost keys, and discover the secret hiding place of the lost treasure. You’ll even be able to view clues by digging into Content Credentials, which allow you to view an image’s history as it undergoes changes through its lifecycle:
Content Credentialing using C2PA standards
You’ll be able to solve the mystery only by getting hands-on with Cloudinary’s powerful image transformations – try them out yourself by creating a free account at cloudinary.com. Solve all 5 challenges and arrive at your destination, key in hand.
As you progress, you’ll complete labs to work with the clues scattered through Boston. Add your cloud name and the public ID of the image in the Lab to experiment with different transformations that will help you solve the clue.
