Score: 5.3/10 (Innovation: 6, Technical: 5, Documentation: 6, Utility: 5)

Find My Pothole is a location-based game that uses Mumbai's BMC pothole complaint data to let users 'find' unfixed potholes and score points, with a leaderboard. It collects data every five minutes to track status changes, providing a transparent view of pothole repair delays. The project is an interesting civic tech experiment blending gamification with open data.

Target audience: civic hackers, urban residents, local government watchers
