Field notes

BuzzExplore describes a GPS-gated sequence: players travel to a listed site, trigger a riddle on arrival, and accumulate points through answers, consecutive solves, social sharing, and stranger-photo challenges. The three county realms contain 35, 13, and 12 locations respectively, while the page also advertises 50 rank titles and an eight-week unlocking schedule. The landing page offers separate player and business enrollment, with early registrants promised a 50-point starting bonus.
