Welcome to the Usufructuary. To summarize what you’re getting yourself into, here’s a brief excerpt from the rules page:
Usufructuary is a game that combines the spirit of usufruct and urban exploration with the format of a scavenger hunt. Completing a Challenge in the game usually requires both knowledge of the urban landscape and the ability to navigate with cunning. Some challenges require ingenuity and stealth, while others require speed, agility, or luck.
Because this is the first challenge, I’m not going to make it too difficult. Today’s Object is a film canister, completely visible in the picture attached below. You’ll know you have the right film canister because:
- There are identifying green circular stickers on the top, bottom, and side of the canister.
- The canister contains an email address and a secret phrase.
The first player to identify the Location, find the Object, and send the phrase to the email address inside will earn 200 Points. While this is really only a 100 point challenge, at most, I’m giving a Bonus because it’s the first such challenge.
Keep in mind that while you’re welcome to give out hints and spoilers in the comments, it’s usually beneficial not to do so until a winner is declared.
