Safari - Cooperative AR Game

Collaborative teamwork to ‘round up’ virtual wild animals in the urban jungle

An emergency is unfolding downtown; players learn that all the animals in the city zoo have escaped! Their mission is to form highly efficient crack squads to track them down. Armed only with their personal device, players scan a QR code and get ready for action. Teams navigate a parallel world using augmented reality, find the escapee animals and return them to safety.

Players are assigned specialist roles and access to walkie-talkie channels integrated into their app. Only well-coordinated cross-functional communication will save the day! Safari is ‘social.

distance ready’ and can be played across any outdoor environment.

Learning Outcomes :

In Safari, each player must know their position and strength and communicate their specialist assigned roles. ‘Operators’ have a big map view with animal locations; ‘Scientists’ gather potions to make sedatives and, ‘Rangers’ gather equipment to catch and transport the animals. The intriguing storyline and fantastical AR game format actively encourage all team members to participate. In working their way to the end goal, teams must actively listen, consider all opinions, and make decisions quickly in a limited time. While socializing and having fun, participants will discover the talents of others and learn how to work together. The scalable gameplay means that Safari is suited to both small and large groups.
