"Move your mobile!" with Tourality - a Freeware Outdoor Multiplayer GPS Game for Mobile Phones
May 2008 - New version 0.9.1 of the high-tech treasure hunt game available for download at tourality.com
(firmenpresse) - Berlin/Vienna. One year after launching the public beta phase in May 2007 the Mobile 2.0 specialists of creative workline released version 0.9.1 of their multiplayer GPS game for mobile phones. "Tourality - move your mobile!" implements the concepts of the good old paper chase for mobile phones in a new way. Equipped with a phone and GPS (integrated or as an external Bluetooth device) the player's task is to reach predefined geographic spots as fast as possible and before opponents. While the players are on their way - by foot, by bike or any other means they like - their real position is tracked by the GPS.
Tourality displays the positions of all participating players as well as the positions of the spots to reach on a virtual map on the mobile phone. The players will always now where they are, where to go, and how they perform compared to co-players. Four different game modes can be played alone, in Player vs. Player, or Team vs. Team mode for up to 40 people. After registering for free at the official website tourality.com the spots to reach can be created with the help of Google Maps by players themselves. The Java application necessary for playing outdoors can be downloaded from tourality.com as well.
"Tourality was launched in 2007 as a trendy combination of sports, nature and a mobile phone game and shall become the successor of the popular Geocaching" says Jonas Soukup of creative workline, who came up with the idea of Tourality already four years ago. In the meantime you can come across fans of this new kind of outdoor action in over 250 European cities. Tourality primarily appeals to sportive people in the cities and mountainbikers - the looks of curious passers-by are guaranteed.
For the new version 0.9.1 creative workline also re-worked Tourality's web portal in order to strengthen the community aspect. It allows "Touralityans" to review games played outdoors, browse player profiles, and view regional highscores among other things. By means of a web demo you can now get an impression of the game with just a single mouse click.
