How FOG works while you do this
FOG: Fog of War Walking Map covers the world in fog and clears it only where you physically walk. A festival weekend in a town this size lights up the map in blocks, not a thin line, because everything is close together. It runs in your pocket with the screen off, needs no account and no signal, and is free to explore.
