Here’s the information from the meetup event:
Join us for a few rounds of electronic Capture the Flag in downtown Durham. This map is a bit more ‘urban’ so we are restricting it to players 18 years of age or older.
Games typically last 15 to 30 minutes so its OK to join in late, leave early or take necessary breaks to take in a beer from the Taproom. After dark games are pretty great too.
Players must be 18 years of age or older and a waiver signature is required to play. StrataTag is an advanced ‘capture the flag’ game using augmented reality checkpoints, gps mapping and real-time communications to take the strategy and fun of Capture the Flag to a whole new level. All skill and fitness levels are welcome. The game does involve exercise and some intense gameplay. You will need an iPhone (v10.x) or Android (v5.x or higher) phone with GPS and data turned on. Bring earbuds and make sure your battery is ready to go.A typical outing is 2 to 3 hour and uses 20 to 80 Mb of mobile data. The game is played with 5 or more players.
Get ready for adrenaline-fueled excitement as you work with your team to outsmart and outplay your opponent in real life. This game is a great way to get exercise, connect with friends and explore multiple layers of strategy in a new game. While playing, field players will log into the game using their iPhone or Android which enables location sharing, messaging and strategic game interactions. Expect to be up and moving quite a bit! You will be in constant contact with an Intel Player, who has a strategic view of the entire game map.
