I'm launching a GPS dragon treasure hunt game in few days. Want to be early and help shape it?

Hey Product Hunt fam!
I'm a solo maker and in just a few days I'll be launching TatsuVault here a mobile game (Currently PWA) that turns your real city/neighborhood into a living adventure map.Think: Pok mon GO vibes mixed with geocaching and light dragon-raising RPG (in development).
Here s what you can do right now in TatsuVault:

  • Hatch and raise mythical dragons (Tatsuki) by exploring outside

  • Drop encrypted treasures at any GPS spot (excluding restricted ones) for others to find

  • Jump into spontaneous Battle Drops when creatures appear on the live map

  • Create multi-location treasure hunts with clues and stories for friends or the community

  • 100% free to play/ explore and hunts no paywall on the core fun

I've noticed that most geocaching apps focus on just one or two features, but the whole real-world location gaming trend is still just getting started. So I built TatsuVault to combine the best of geocaching with real gaming elements creating communities, encouraging exploration, and bringing fresh ways for influencers, businesses, and creators to interact with their audiences. In short: I turned the entire world into a living game. Right now the app is already playable at tatsuvault.app (early version).I'd love your help before the official Product Hunt launch:

  • Try it out on one short walk or toggle virtual mode and explore from home and tell me what you think

  • Which city are you in?

  • What change feature would you love to see?

  • Any bugs, ideas, or suggestions?

TatsuVault - Combine real-world exploration with gamified adventure

Hey folks, Geocaching and treasure hunting is getting a fresh twist. With TatsuVault I'm adding gamified features that make it way more social. It's about building communities- creators making hunts, hunters teaming up, chatting and having fun together. I'm also mixing in businesses so being active actually brings rewards. I´ve added cool features for creating drops, rewards and more.. Product isn´t 100% finished/polished yet, game part is basic,,RPG styled game update is next big step.
