Ok, so this one is pretty wild and unexpected! It's sort like animal crossing - with no village. But also like those social world/games, but without direct social interaction (as far as I can tell). You basically collect stuff. And you find stuff by wandering around (in the real world) while the game sniffs out wi-fi hot spots! More hot-spots, more treasures! When I first booted it up last night, I thought the game was "busted" because it never found a hot stop, but then - when I had the DS plugged in it did! So, I don't know what was happening (wi-fi powered down?). I did try to browse the web from the DS that sort of worked - some sites worked and others didn't. So, I don't know what's happening. Perhaps it's just an out-of-date browser? Also, unclear what was happening with the hot-spot sniffing. It should work with the DS just closed and NOT plugged in? Anyways, I've collected a bunch of treasures but with no one else to play with and the website that supports the game (and unlocks MORE treasures), there's really no point...
