Turf Bombing is a location-based war game which rewards and encourages
traveling and learning about different neighborhoods.
This game requires a laptop and works anywhere in the world where there's a
wifi connection. Your laptop's wifi connection is used to triangulate your
position.
Teams are assigned by the zip code of your home address. The goal of each
team is to gain as much territory as possible.
Territories are acquired as players plant time bombs at different locations
in physical space. If the bomb is not diffused by a local team member in
time, the bomb will explode and the territory will be turned over to the
team that planted the bomb.
There are 4 ranks within each team. General > Lieutenant > Sergeant >
Civilians. Your rank is determined by your share of the team's territory.
Higher ranking players have more power and influence.
Turfbombing does not and never will collect or track any personally
identifiable information about you.

Turfbombing only a few weeks old. Let me know what you think! New features
are coming.
