Question 2:
Within the Dark Knight's Alternate Reality game, players were required to follow a fairly linear path in that the majority of the game was a scavenger hunt. However, the linear path of one step of the game to another could actually be completed with a rather large amount of freedom to explore. For example, players were required to take a picture of themselves next to a 'famous monument' while wearing a Joker costume. This monument could be anything the players desired within the city limits of San Diego, setting the game world's barriers city-wide. Many of the game's puzzles and requests required players to cooperate across the real world and online, further expanding the game's limits.
While the path to advance through the game was very set in its structure with one victory in a task leading to the next, the game word itself was masssive and free, spanning an entire city and the world wide web across dozens of websites found within the pages of actual Gotham City newspapers delivered to fans and players.
