MacHeist.com officially launched on Wednesday... a five week Mac scavenger hunt from the creators of MyDreamApp.
Each week features a "heist" requiring users to follow clues provided to accomplish their tasks. The first task? Gather secret information* about the long rumored Apple iPhone from an insider.
Each heist rewards players with free software applications as well as additional discounts to the final "amazing" Mac software bundle.
At this time MacHeist is invite only, but we've managed to provide a backdoor for MacRumors users to register freely. Have fun... time's running out for this heist which ends on Monday.
* All scenarios are staged and the "heists" are for entertainment purposes only... in other words, this is a game.
