how to play

So am I the only one who doesn't understand how this game works? Is there some place we can find out how to play the game?

I agree that the instructions and documentation for this need a lot more info.

From what I've figured out, YouCatch seems like a game that's similar to tag. It will show the locations of other people in your game (but only for short periods) and you have to physically find the person. I think when you find them a "fire" button appears on your phone and you score by "shooting" another player. Not 100% on this though. Not many people playing this are close to my location, so I haven't had a chance to play this fully.

Roads of San Fran is a game where you are given a story line and clues. You then have to figure out where to go. when you get to that location, the next clue is triggered which in turn leads you to another location. You're solving a mystery. This game can be played by physically traveling around San Fran and your GPS location triggers the clues, or you can play in simulation mode where you can move your character around using the trackball. The game's a little short but pretty fun.

The Munich game I'm assuming is pretty much the same as the San Fran one, but I haven't played it yet.

Hope that helps a little.

When I start new game and select roads of san fran, it gives me a message saying "you're far from this location. Would you like to play in simulation mode' and I pick yes. Simple as that

thats probably why its not asking you.

you can play by actually traveling to those locations. not sure if youre able to do simulation mode. but the game starts in huntington park, so hop on over there if you have a free afternoon

yeah, it'd be great if you had the option to enter simulated mode. I wonder how far you have to be before the game deems you "Far away" enough

Well that'd be great except I'm in southern cali. So unless one of us creates a games (and I have no clue how the game designer works), unfortunately I don't think we can play together
