More about Augmented Reality
If you have never played with Pokémon GO, it’s hard to imagine that you haven’t heard of this world-famous “mobile game craze” with amazing download records. And this game has been tried by almost all ages, it is still playing today.
Let’s just look at the two cute grandmothers as they play Pokémon. Yeah, “they don’t have a smart phone, but they’ve tried what Pokémon Go that everyone plays with. It’s hard to start, but they couldn’t make a mistake in the end.” (Source Indavideo, Jul 30, 2016)
But what does it have to do with our “Quest with Us” mobile game? Well, just like Pokémon Go, in our game, we tag the image “seen” by the smartphone / tablet camera with some building, statue, and other landmark information, displaying a new layer on the screen. This is done with the augmented reality (AR) function.
Augmented reality adds computer-generated virtual elements to the real physical environment, the world we see with more information. All of this is displayed in real time on the display of modern mobile phones and tablets.
If you are pointing the device’s camera to an object at a particular location – a statue, plaque, or other feature – then the app will detect it, display a new layer on the phone or tablet screen.
In our mobile games this can be a contemporary photo, video, newspaper article detail that can give you a key to progressing in the game, or just providing you pieces of unique information that you can’t find in popular travel guides during a sightseeing tour. And you can only get this experience if you visit the site during the scavenger hunt game.
Well, this makes the “Quest with Us” treasure hunt games unique and thrilling. Hope you will enjoy it.
