The Tagruato.jp website has been updated, so it looks like the ARG (Alternate Reality Game) for Cloverfield 3 may be underway.
Tagruato is the fictional parent company to Slusho!, the frozen beverage featured prominently in the original Cloverfield ARG.
While the website doesn't appear to do anything at first glance, maybe there is something to the error message:
06110-.,&0tm_auth=6l0H7iMgYrWnr6ciiW69zg>6_pre2028%-66*nt--d0--18,=--..,.,n-0061026873966
* thanks to Melodyman and Yob Led for emailing about this!
Here is Reddit's attempt at unscrambling the words. Not sure if it's 100% correct due to all the distortion, but here it is:
ReplyDelete"Tokyo – January 18 2018 Tagruato has begun development on a revolutionary new energy technology In what Ceo Ganu Yoshida called a technological great leap foreward for our planet This renewable technology will take at least 4 year to complete with along with another six years International regulatory bodies to bring the powerful revolutionary energy source by april 18 2028"
Also, this website was found, though it could be a gamejack. Jury is out at the moment: http://04182028.com/
ReplyDeleteGehen you zoom in to the middle of the image you can slightly see the monster from Cloverfield 1
ReplyDelete04182028.com has a strange creepy warning message from the future. I think...idk. But i know something happens on april 18 or 19 in the year 2028. Probabaly an accident with the particle accelerator..... Theres also a guy with glasses in the video, is that JJ abrams or Gordon from half life wtffff??.
ReplyDeleteIt'd be hilarious if this turns out to be a Half-Life film. lol
Deleteoh lawd but itd be pretty cool though.
DeleteHas anyone solved the error code yet? I've been trying to decipher it using some decoders programs but with no luck.
ReplyDeleteThe website seems to be online again, just: there is another error, which appears as you choose a language. It seems like they talk to us: "be patient, calm down and wait for the start" :-)
ReplyDeleteBTW, there is another website: http://04182028.com/ (the numbers are the date as Tagruato plans to finish their project). Here you can see distorted video with a person, who seems to be Annika Peltier (Employee of the Month February 2016 by Tagruato). She works for ParaFUN!
The whole story could correspod with Cloverfield anthology idea: Cloverfield was Slusho, 10 Cloverfield Lane was Bold Futura, Gods Particle could be ParaFUN centered.
p.s. great to see you again! Like in good old times!

Wow, the tagurato site does say error to every language, i guess all we can do now is to be patient and hope there is more updates this week. I would like to introduce my self, i am Austin and I've been a fan of Colverfield since it came out 10 years ago (Plus i also saw 10 Cloverfield lane) and have been hooked to ARGs, since then i didn't thought about Cloverfield until a week ago. I have a question for you, do you have any luck figuring out the error codes? i know its still too early to come to any conclusions, just curious if you got anything, thanks
DeleteHas anyone tried to change the codec on the video on 04182028.com?
