If you’ve never heard of Assassins you need to go here and here to find out more.

Last year Streetwars, a form of Assassin, was played in New York City, Vancouver, Vienna, San Francisco, Los Angeles, London, San Diego, New York City, Burning Man Festival and Barcelona. Streetwars is a 3 week long 24/7 watergun assassination tournament.

At the start of the game you’ll receive the following in a brown manila envelope:

* A picture of your intended target(s)
* The home address of your intended target(s)
* The work address of your intended target(s)
* The name of your intended target(s)
* Contact information of your intended target(s)

Once you receive those items, your (or your team’s) mission is to find and kill (by way of water gun, water balloon or super soaker) your target(s).

If you are successful in your assassination attempt, the person you killed will give you their envelope and the person they were supposed to kill becomes your new target. This continues until you work yourself through all the players and retrieve the envelope with your (or your team’s) picture(s) and name(s).

Ssassins is an Assassins game hosting site which makes the job of organising your own Assassins game easier and more manageable.

Hot on the heels of Streetwars is the Vitruve Project (a mobile trans-world espionage game) and
Wifi Army (Mobile real world FPS game) – http://www.wifiarmy.com/ – looking forward to getting involved in them both!
