YOU-WHO - a mobile phone guessing game
YOU-WHO is a social game for mobile phones that makes use of the personal area networks created by Bluetooth technology to act as a gentle introduction for strangers.
After mutual consent to play the game, one player acts as ‘mystery person', gradually feeding clues about their appearance to the other player, who builds up a picture on their screen. After a number of clues have been given, the players' phones ‘call' to each other with a distinctive sound, revealing both players' locations and identities. So follows a meeting...
YOU-WHO can also be played as a group game where friends can join in and influence gameplay.
You-WHO is offered as a free 28 day time-limited demo. The developers at AgeO+ hope to have a full commercial release soon.
Thanks Chris!
