-//"The photo collection of WW I is one of the largest of the Swiss Federal Archives. It contains more than 5125 negatives on glass plates which are successively digitized. They document the active service of the Swiss Army during the first World War Can you guess where the pictures were taken?"//
+This is a game about guessing and learning about geography through images and maps, made with Swisstopo's online maps of Switzerland. For several years this game was developed as open source, part of a series of [[https://www.geo.admin.ch/en/thematic-geoportals-federal-offices/storymaps-telling-stories-with-geodata.html|GeoAdmin StoryMaps]]: you can try the original [[http://mf-swissguesser.prod.bgdi.ch/main/storymaps/storymap5/|SwissGuesser game here]], based on a dataset from the Swiss Federal Archives now hosted at [[https://opendata.swiss/en/dataset/historical-photograph-collection-active-service-in-the-first-world-war|Opendata.swiss]].
-This is a web game about guessing and learning about geography through imagea and maps, made with Swisstopo's GeoAdmin map of Switzerland. After several years of development as a series of [[https://www.geo.admin.ch/en/thematic-geoportals-federal-offices/storymaps-telling-stories-with-geodata.html|GeoAdmin StoryMaps]] - try the original [[http://mf-swissguesser.prod.bgdi.ch/main/storymaps/storymap5/|SwissGuesser game here]] - we play tested, forked and started a refresh of the project at [[http://make.opendata.ch/wiki/event:2017-09|#GLAMhack 2017]].
+The new version puts your orienteering of Swiss museums to the test.
-We updated all library dependencies but got rid of the old data loading mechanism, with the goal of connecting (later in real time) to open data sources such as Wikidata/Commons. A test is being done via the Wikidata Linked Data endpoint (see app/data/*.sparql in [[https://github.com/loleg/openguesser/tree/wikidata-initial|wikidata-initial branch]]), notably via datasets tagged 'glam' on Opendata.swiss for creating custom games.
+Demo: **[[http://openguesser.utou.ch/|OpenGuesser Demo]]**
-There are a few other improvement ideas in mind already:
+Encouraged by an excellent Wikidata workshop ([[https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1hwUBbtP0TppAKrEpjtSjdOXePZ_7OIRNDWsAHzVk0NA/htmlpresent|slides]]) at [[http://make.opendata.ch/wiki/event:2017-09|#GLAMhack 2017]], we are testing a new dataset of Swiss museums, their locations and photos, obtained via the Wikidata Linked Data endpoint (see app/data/*.sparql in [[https://github.com/loleg/openguesser|the source]]). Visit this [[http://tinyurl.com/yaozelrt|Wikidata Query]] for a preview of the first 10 results. This opens the possibility of connecting other sources, such as datasets tagged 'glam' on Opendata.swiss, and creating more custom games based on this engine.
-  * Redesign to improve aesthetics and usability.
+We play-tested, revisited the data, then forked and started a refresh of the project. All libraries were updated, and we got rid of the old data loading mechanism, with the goal of connecting (later in real time) to open data sources. A bunch of improvement ideas are already proposed, and we would be glad to see more ideas and any contributions: please raise an [[https://github.com/loleg/openguesser/issues|Issue]] or Pull Request on GitHub if you're so inclined!
-  * Add a new title and tutorial, complete with loading sequence.
-  * Difficulty levels.
-  * Multiple guesses.
-  * Cooperative play (e.g. ghost traces of a friend)
-  * High scores.
-  * Sound f/x!
-..and we would be glad to see more ideas and any contributions: please raise an [[https://github.com/loleg/openguesser/issues|Issue]] or PR if you're so inclined!
