New RPG uses e911 for location-based gaming
A new RPG for mobiles from Hardcore 3D promises to mix Zelda with Harvest Moon, and throws in a bit of aGPS to sweeten the deal. The Shroud sounds like your fairly standard RPG fare of high adventure and farming, but there will also be challenges that require you to be a certain place with your e911 assisted phone to compete. Of course, this would require that phone to have built-in aGPS, and for everything network-wise to by hunky dory -- a shady proposition at best. But otherwise it sounds like an interesting new level of interactivity.
