Pokemon, the most famous show of its time has now become viral in mobile gaming with the integration of Augmented Reality in their recent release Pokemon GO

The show was created in 1995 and had been a huge success. Now, the game is doing quite well, and people have found it absorbing.

Integration of Augmented Reality. 


What is augmented reality?

According to the Wikipedia, Augmented Reality is an accurate view of the physical and real-world environment whose elements are augmented by computer-generated input such as video, audio, and GPS.

No doubt that developers of operating system and other entertainment application want to include augmented reality into their product to make it more interactive and user-friendly. Recently, the Pokemon company has finally released its anticipated game Pokemon GO, which brings the gaming series into the real world with the application uses augmented reality and geocaching.

Gotta catch 'em all! 


If you have watched Pokemon, then you would remember that in the show, there was a guy named Ash Ketchum with his Pokemon Pikachu, a girl whose name Misty and a dude named Brock. These three friends start the journey to becoming a Pokemon master and travel the imaginary world. During their journey they meet other Pokemon masters and Pokemon, also they catch a few Pokemon during
their trip.

In this game, you will encounter something similar. Gamer (you) will have actually to travel around your city and hunt for the Pokemon. Right now, the Pokemon creatures have come from other Pokemon games like Red and Blue.


The other side.


So far, the game has been a huge it. But they have to pay the price. Due to its immense success, the flow of users is so high that the servers of the game are jammed, and few people have to lead the complaints to social media. 

Games are Australia have found Pokemon in a police station. Hence, it has created a buzz and police officials of Australia go frustrated and told people not to enter the premises in social media.


Despite of some flaws, I believe that this game is a worth trying. Here is a trailer of the game.
