This is a blog on location-based games. That´s all kind of outdoor games to be played with localization technology.

Gesa Henselmans (aka miss_h) is reporting on her adventures and thoughts playing outside with her GPS-enabled phone and designing gps missions . Before she had her first GPS receiver she´s been into site specific theater and media art. If not on a mission she´s writing a phd on Geocaching at Constance University .
