Device Requirements:
Make sure your mobile device is charged and there is a stable internet connection before use to minimize interruptions.
iOS (minimum version 11.0) and Android (minimum version 5.0) platforms are supported
Minimizing Distractions:

PZ works best when users are actively engaged and uninterrupted, so try your best to minimize distractions (e.g. use headphones, turn off phone notifications, mark your calendar etc.).
If an interruption does occur and you need to exit the PZ app, the gameplay session will pause and you can return to your session later in the day.
