Will my phone support the game?
If your phone is on this list or has a media remote function such as the new sony erricson and nokia phones, then you can play.
How much does it cost to play?
Depends on the venue running it. Some games are free to play, some games will be pay to play, using various means to pay. Pay to play prices will vary depending on the game being played and what incentives the venue offers to put on.
Currently the demo version is completely free to play.
How many people can play at once?
127 players will be the maximum in the final released version.
Where can I play?
Unless you're at one of our public demos for IDAT310 or Termisoc, unfortunatly there are no public games running. Its somewhat complex to get running one a personal computer, however it is doable, so should you want a go, just get in touch and ask for a copy of the demo. We are currently considering a full unscripted, unsupervised week long public test in a real nightclub. If you know anywhere likely to be up for it or want to lend a hand, we'd love to hear from you.
So how are games run? Do I get to choose what game I want to play? what if its just me playing?
Well, it depends on how the venue sets it up. On a standard automated control, the game uses a combination of what you ask it for and some jiggery pokery to suit the situation. If you're the only one playing, you can play a selection of single player games. For pay to play games, you have the option of keeping it solo, but otherwise, if more players want to join in, either the game will be designed to be scalable to several players, just tweaking the rules slightly to make it work or the system will entirely change the rules to something similar, but more suited to multiple players.
The multiplayer games will be designed to be scalable, so if its just you and a couple of mates you can do that, but when the rest of the bar drops another thirty players into the game, it will tweak things a bit so it doesn't get bogged down and overwhelming.
Looks cool, how do I get one for my bar/club/party?

Looks cool, I'm a developer and want to build a game for it, can I?
At the moment, we're still working on the code to make it more easily moddable, but if you're really keen, we'll happily collaborate and let you work on the raw source code.
On a scale of one to ten, how drunk were you while devloping this game? No sober person would ever create such maddness...
You haven't even seen the source code yet. Our developers go up to eleven.
By offering drinks promotions don't you think you're contributing to todays binge drinking culture?
Possibly, however we are much more cunning than that. The underlying principle behind our games is to subtley make people have fun and have new social interactions in ways they weren't expecting up front. Since this is one of the underlying reasons behind the binge drinking, we hope to help people get the same carefree buzz without the bad side effects. At the moment, this is all just talk, we are currently doing rediculously odd reasearch into the nature of fun and purpose of nightclub socialising to get a clearer view of what is really going on.
Seriously, "pubbage"?
Eh, it sounded like a good name at the time...
