Where it is in Sydney: the same boundary the council draws, on the same streets. Everyone starts in Newtown; walk or ride the train to Glebe and the welcome card tells you when you have arrived.

Who is on the corner in Glebe?

Frankie, secondhand bookseller, at Glebe Point Road / Wigram Road. Find them, talk to them and collect the Glebe mug for your bag; each is worth points. They are a character, not a real resident.

Which trains stop at Glebe?

No station inside the boundary; 13 bus routes call at a stop inside it.

Is Glebe drawn from the real map?

Yes. Every street, park, footpath and building footprint is OpenStreetMap geometry drawn as pixel art at 25 cm per pixel, the boundary is the council's, and the acknowledgement of Country on the welcome card is quoted from Council of the City of Sydney's own website.

Where in Glebe is the clip on this page?

Glebe Point Road. It is the game itself, recorded at 10 in the morning on a weekday: the streets, footpaths and shopfronts are OpenStreetMap, the buses are on the Transport for NSW timetable, and the birds, cyclists and people are the game's own.
