- For
- Australian iPhone players who enjoy location-based games
- Worth noticing
- The page names distinct resource sources: timber from parks, water from beaches and rivers, stone from landmarks, and steel from stations.
Field notes
Collection is tied to a short real-world visit: players stand beside a listed place for a few seconds, with the location type determining the resource. The page also describes two scales of competition—state and Australia-wide—and says suburb streets change as people contribute. Its safety note limits play to public places and warns against playing while driving.
