Odakyu Electric Railway will hold “Odakyu Mystery Town Train 2025,” a mystery-solving hands-on event with no participation fee. The event will run from January 20 to May 25.

The idea is to enjoy solving riddles while collecting clues in towns along the Odakyu Line, using a booklet distributed free of charge at each Odakyu Line station as a guide. The difficulty level of the riddles is suitable for adults, and the spots for solving the riddles are not limited to those in front of stations, but are spread throughout the city.

To participate, in addition to the booklet or special mission leaflet distributed free of charge at each Odakyu Line station, you must add a friend to the official Odakyu Mystery Town Train 2025 LINE account. If the answer to the riddle is correct, the next destination will be displayed on the talk screen.

Those who solve the riddles in the main booklet will be entered into a drawing for prizes such as Odakyu Department Store gift certificates (worth 10,000 yen) and an assortment of Mokoron goods. Those who complete both the booklet and leaflet will also be entered into a railroad parts prize drawing to win a pair of scissors used at the station (kaikyo).
