Gameplay
"Tales of VR" is an innovative AR experience aimed at inviting users to explore their surroundings while taking them on a unique AR journey through time, from the 19th to the 21st century, to explore, collect, and try on the most iconic VR devices in history. Explore, collect, live the history!
Game Mechanics
Leveraging Niantic Maps and our custom geolocation system, we seamlessly locate virtual content around the globe. When users start the experience, our system dynamically analyzes their location to find and locate five different "points of interest" in nearby public green areas. There, users can discover temporal anomalies to travel in time.
When a temporal anomaly opens, the experience launches a portal where the user is invited to enter. Each portal has its own period style, and inside is the VR headset to collect. At this point, the user has two options: return to maps and continue their time travel or use the great feature of 8thWall Try-On.
Try-On allows the use of the front camera to give the user the ability to wear the collected device and immortalize the moment by sharing a picture or video of this unique moment in time.
