Location-based game

A game in which the game play somehow involves your location. This can be for example be accomplished using GPS enabled phones, as it was done in Pac-Manhattan, where players play a real live version of Pacman.

These games usually only lasts for a certain amount of time, rarely running continously, and they usually require more people to organize together.
