Insider Tips for Your Time(s) at Meow Wolf Denver

So you’ve decided to enter into Convergence. This might be your very first time exploring this collision of worlds or it could be your 236th time, but I assure you that each time you enter Meow Wolf Denver, you’ll encounter spaces, interactions, and discoveries you haven’t experienced before in this multidimensional space. 

Below are the finest tips I can give you on experiencing Convergence Station, speaking from personal experience. From the first time I remember being engulfed in the dazzling magic and wonder of the multiverse four years ago, to my most recent adventure exploring the lore of the Forgotten Four, read on for my unsolicited advice. (I sure hope it’s helpful!)

If you need a primer/reminder on Convergence Station in general, make sure to read up on our Converged Worlds here.

First Timer Tips:

For your first time at Meow Wolf Denver, or any Meow Wolf really, you’ll want to absorb all that’s around you. Which is…honestly a lot to ask, but it’s all about making your own experience! Here’s what advice I can give you:

• Get lost and enjoy the space. Truly! There are any exponential number of ways that you can traverse through the four worlds of Eemia, Numina, Ossuary, and C Street (aka Immensity). Pick a path, follow it, and don’t be concerned that you have to follow any certain order or direction. In fact, who needs order and direction! Some way, some how, you find your way around (insider tip: we do have QDOT agents when you first arrive in the lobby at the infodesk that can help you find your way, including to the bathrooms). 
• Try every door and look in every little opening. If a door is meant to be locked, it will certainly be. But there are hidden doors for you to discover that open into other spaces, so try all the handles (or non-handles) you see! You can find such a door in The Shrine of Clean that helps you learn more about The Cycle and secret laundry teachings. Plus, walking around Numina, you can’t help but find little openings, small and unexpected, that show you the multitudes of worlds that are within.
• It's ok if you don't see everything. I know a fair amount of completionists, but Convergence Station has so much to see that you may likely miss a space or two (and that’s OK)! It gives you a reason to visit again (Portal Pass anyone?), but even then, Meow Wolf Denver is constantly changing. There are new activations added and new spaces refreshed with art, like Galleri Gallery. With how many times I’ve explored this section of the multiverse (honestly, at least 12 times), I continue to find new things and it gives me a new appreciation for all that is to be discovered at Convergence Station.

See if you can discover the mysteries of the Forgotten Four, that’s the true mystery of Convergence Station. Use handy tools like the QPASS and the Psychic Sensor within the Meow Wolf App to find out what is happening to these worlds and how you can help. If you don’t figure this story out on your first trip, come back and explore again. The mystery needs you to solve it.

Second/Third/236th Timer Tips:

Ah, back for more, we love to see it! There’s plenty to discover and dive into after your first trip to Convergence. Why don’t you give these a whirl when you come back to Meow Wolf Denver:

• I’m saying it again: discover and solve the mysteries! If you didn’t already on your first time (because trust me, I’ve spent silly amounts of hours playing in The Perplexiplex and understand how you can lose track of time), dive into the lore and see what the Converged Worlds and Forgotten Four are all about. There’s so much to watch and learn on MEMports around Convergence Station, and the MEMs you collect will help you solve the greatest mysteries in these worlds. Not to mention, they lead you on some silly adventures if you find the right MEMs (I’m looking at you, VEND-L).
  
  • Speaking of The Perplexiplex, don’t forget to look at our concert calendar and see an event in the space, it changes your perspective on seeing a live show! There’s yoga, comedy, drag, and tons of other activities in the space, more than just really sick concerts.
• Look out for something new to you. I’ve found new-to-me things on my second, third, and even twelfth times through Convergence. Look closely and see if you discover some new thing or place that you didn’t notice before. On my last visit, I discovered a new creature in Numina that I had never seen before – it was really cool and I felt that same excitement I did on my first visit!
• Also look out for what IS new. There are a lot of things that change between visits to Meow Wolf Denver. During our newest event series, Phenomenomaly, you can find creatures (kindly) invading the space. Maybe there’s a new room that has recently opened that might be tied to one Undermaller with a penchant for pizza (insider tip: Start in the Alley for your first clue in the quest). It can also be the hidden clues around C Street to hack the system (hint: There’s something up with the power lines). There is so much to explore every visit!

Boop those MEMports with your QPASS again and just see what happens. If you've solved the mysteries of Convergence Station with your QPASS, go and re-boop previous MEMports. Some exciting things might happen to the spaces once you have solved the mysteries (like I discovered in Mijo Mijo recently, what a party!).
