I am totally intrigued with this gaming idea. However, you definitely need to have some elements that keep all players interested. Simply following the same activity will potentially get dull. My friends and I are planning a live adventure during the art fair next year. Perhaps we should team up?

What about adding some twists like:

- you can only tell if a piece is yours or not yours; if not yours you can’t tell whose
- some pieces don’t belong to anyone, they’re just extras to confuse things (but because of the rule just above, you would only know that it isn’t yours)
- a few pieces can work for anyone (i.e. generic “left arm” can be used by anyone)

I just want to say I had a great time winning.. haha.. Also, when building the game, we adjusted the intervals at which the iPhone retrieves the GPS coordinates, thereby extending the battery life a bit.

Great idea guys. You are the future of gaming. It’s wide open. Can’t wait to see where you can take this.

Sounds like a cool game. That said, with location services on which I’m assuming you need to play, I would probably be able to play for an hour before my phone died.
