LOST turns your city into the play area and every other player into part of the game. HOW IT WORKS When a tournament starts, you're assigned a single target somewhere inside the play area. Track them down using real-time GPS. When you get close enough, raise your phone and confirm the elimination through the AR camera. The moment you eliminate your target, you inherit theirs. The chain contracts with every elimination. The last competitor standing wins. This is a real-world game. You move, you navigate, you read the map, and you make your move at the right moment. There's no rolling dice and no luck button — outcomes come down to how you play. TOURNAMENT TYPES Choose your format, all free and points-based: - Last One Standing — the final competitor takes the full points prize - Podium — points awarded by elimination count, with a bonus for the Last One Standing - Bounty — earn points for every elimination you confirm - Podium + Bounty — a hybrid of placement points and per-elimination points PLAYS IN THE REAL WORLD - AR camera confirmation for every elimination - Live GPS tracking that turns your neighborhood into the field - Tournaments run 24/7 — find a competition and enter any time - Shrinking play areas that drive every tournament to a natural finish - Safe zones around schools, hospitals, places of worship, and your own home base BUILT FOR FAIR PLAY LOST is a skill-based competition. A health meter keeps the game active and honest, anti-cheat systems protect the field, and the AR interface automatically disables above 25 mph so nobody plays while driving. Play smart, play safe, and respect the people and places around you. FREE TO PLAY Every tournament in this release is free to enter and rewards points — points have no cash value and aren't redeemable for money. Compete, climb the leaderboard, and prove you can outplay everyone else on the map. Track your target. Eliminate them in AR. Inherit the next. Be the Last One Standing.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Dot Tag at none against LOST's shown. Dot Tag also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). LOST's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
