    This was surprisingly thrilling. Also... rather unsettling how easily he could have found you if you WEREN'T actively evading. If you think about it in terms of, say, running errands about town, there's a lot of traveling to a place and then lingering there for some time while you complete your errand (shopping, waiting on line at the dry cleaner's, etc.).

      There used to be a somewhat similar gameshow in Sweden, back in the days when not everyone had a mobile phone and phone booths still existed in every tiny little town. The escaping team had tasks they had to carry out which would give the chasing team clues to where they were; every Friday they had to call in to the studio from a phone booth somewhere and stay on the phone while the chasing team hurried to get to the right phone booth; and they had the added rule of not being allowed to cross their previous path ever, while having to stay on Swedish soil. It was SO much fun to watch. The silly Mission Impossible vibes and random shenanigans ...

    Displate is either a cheap painting, or a expensive poster. Being in between, it luckily inherited both their best traits. So I can really recommend it. 👍
    9:41 Pause to read what's on the protective leaf. Their mounting system does indeed perform poorly on structured walls, this is no joke or understatement.
    That thing will come crashing down at the worst time.
    BUT, it luckily does stay put when you replace their mounting system with nano-tape.
    It's cheap, re-useable, and your best alternative to keep your Displates from falling off said walls. So don't let the original system prevent you from buying one.

Some kind of similar "scavenger hunt with a chase" seems like it would be a great weekend thing to do with some friends as well, tbh.
