I guess part of what the game will actually be about will make a difference, but how about a play off of the GPS name?
G.P.S - Global Position Search - Geographic Place Seeking (yuck)
Play off the GeoCaching name (of course this might lead to confusion, or might help its visibility... who knows):
GeoSearch GeoHunt
Or come up with something that sounds more natural (nature friendly, since that seems to be one of the goals):
Natural Location Hunter (NLH) eNaturalist Seekers
Ok, enough for now... Not sure I really care for any of these, but maybe it will stir something in someone else.

Scout,
Thanks for the message, I too am determined to create a new GPS game that doesn't rely on physical caches. Buxley is ready to do it too. I will be starting a New GPS Game developers yahoogroup soon. Trying to think up a good name at this time. Any Thoughts?
Dave...
