Augmented Reality Games

These AR games are for smart phone users. I found this site

while I browsing Internet for my research paper this year.

 

Best Selling Augmented Reality Games of 2009

 

 

2009 was the year AR games broke from the lab into the hands of consumers – and this post celebrates that achievement.

 

By Platform

 

Nintendo

 

Augmented Reality games have been developed for a multitude of platforms such as PC/Mac, Nokia phones, Windows Mobile phones, Android phones, PDAs with cameras, Nintendo DSi, and the Gizmondo.

 

By Genre

 

Another popular approach to group games is by genre. When it comes to AR games genres, there’s a bit more variety than platforms: this year we have seen mostly shooters, but also horror games, a treasure hunt, and even one driving game.

 

By Commercial Success

 

I would have loved to provide you with a sorted list of games by revenue. Unfortunately, this information is not yet public. My guesstimate is that the most commercially succesful AR game of 2009 was in fact released for the PSP – not the iPhone.

 

 

By Game Mechanic

 

The term “Game mechanics” is defined by game design scholars as “a construct of rules intended to produce an enjoyable game“.

 

360 Shooters

 

The top game mechanic of AR games on the iphone uses the compass and accelerometer (3GS only) to compute your orientation and overlay graphics on the iPhone screen as if the action is happening all around you in 360 degrees.
