How about little adventure in your life?
What is it? The Go Game is urban "Survivor" with cell phones. It's a high-adventure, fast and whirly urban scavenger hunt that's one part brain teaser, one part performance art, one part double dare, and one part hijinks.

Venice Beach becomes a gameboard and we are the players! Team up with your sweetheart, friends, colleagues or come and make some new friends. The Go Game staff will provide your team with a cell phone, digital camera, and whatever you might need to complete your missions. Teams use the cell phones to receive directions, clues or riddles and to transmit their answers to "headquarters." Tasks are timed. Creativity and cleverness count. The goal is to complete your missions fast and in the most ingenious,
daring, and creative way.
After the final mission has been completed, teams reconvene at a local pub to share experiences over beers and burgers. The Go Game is for adults in good physical condition who are open to a little lunacy in an otherwise normal existence.
This event is AWESOME! Click here for photos from L7's Go Game last year.

About The Go Game
"Created by a pair of
adventurous San Franciscans, the Go Game is a wild half-day chase
through the city in which players complete 'missions' assigned via
cell phone while staff monitors each team's progress via the computer. All the information comes through a database set up beforehand and the technology allows organizers to track each team's time, score and location as the game goes on. Each game takes about two weeks to set up, a process that includes writing the trivia questions, mapping routes, and planting props along the way."
"People just want to do something fun and different, said Go Game
co-creator Ian Fraser." Reuters May 2002
