Combining augmented reality with real maps to promote social interaction in treasure hunts
The game "Enigma Galdiano" is a mobile game that implements a treasure hunt in the Lazaro Galdiano museum in Madrid (Spain) The main design challenge in this game is to promote and facilitate the collaboration between an adult and a kid playing the game together. The collaboration is mediated through a map, a real one, that is used by the adult and contains additional information that is not included in the app. In this paper we describe the game along with the results of an empirical evaluation that suggest a few lines of improvement.
