it's a bit rough in the ui/ux department and requires a google account but i had fun testing it today. you walk around to "produce" badges, which you can then "drop" wherever you are to make claims on map quadrants

I've been playing for almost three years now and can confirm it's pretty fun!

Damn, that UI is horrible

I got the game as soon as I saw this post, and have been playing it off and on for the last few days. The UI isn't just bad, it's like kinda pretty broken! At least on my GrapheneOS/Pixel 7 Pro, anyway. The game is also really really confusing?

...All that said, I actually really like this idea, and I'll keep playing in hopes the rest improves over time. Also in hopes that anyone else in my area joins in lol, it's pretty quiet here.
