Field notes

The page lays out a three-step creator workflow: choose a lock, add the hidden reward, then share the result. Suggested settings range from a birthday present or proposal to classroom exercises, team activities, and chained escape-game puzzles. It also says creators can send a link, print a QR code, or put the lock on a screen; no installation is required for players.
