Watch Dogs Go (WDGWars) — a real-world wardriving RPG that runs on the uConsole

Found a project worth sharing for anyone into wardriving, LoRa mesh, or the ClockworkPi uConsole.

Watch Dogs Go is an open-source hacking RPG by LOCOSP. It’s a retro pixel-art game layered over real wireless tooling — you walk around a live map while it scans real WiFi and BLE, logs them with GPS, and you earn XP and rank up (NOOB → FINAL_BOSS). The online side, WDGWars, turns your captures into a live territory map where crews compete for ground.

What makes it cool:

  • Real signals, real XP — actual WiFi/BLE wardriving, not simulated
  • LoRa MeshCore — off-grid encrypted mesh chat built in (869 MHz)
  • ADS-B radar — track aircraft via RTL-SDR
  • GPS wardriving — geotagged captures feed the territory map
  • Runs great on the ClockworkPi uConsole — it’s built for the 640×360 display and the AIO hardware modules

It’s MIT licensed, actively developed, and designed with the uConsole in mind (also runs on Raspberry Pi OS / Debian).

Worth a look if you’ve got a uConsole gathering dust or you’re into the wardriving scene.
