as alternative reality games go, this was supposedly one of the larger scale ones: Perplex City. do read it, it’s too cool. i have to do one! a brief and overly simplistic desciption of an ARG: Alternate Reality Gaming (ARG) is a relatively new genre of games that encourages players (you!) to interact with a [...]
“transparent” billboards aren’t exactly a new thing, but this is still pretty cool.
