notes

the "official" sites present the shiny, squeaky-clean exterior of the fictional Blitz League, but they contain puzzles leading the user to the "underground" sites that reveal scandals and dirt. This reflects the gritty nature of the Blitz video game, in which the player manages a football team through backroom deals, crises, and media spin.
