Pokémon Go? You hatch eggs by making steps, iirc. (It’s been a while since I played it) You can buy a themed step counter so you don’t have to bring your phone.
Yeah, I mentioned it in my post. My kid isn't into Pokemons at all and I am not sure how much you can just spend walking and hatching eggs? Like you need to get those eggs somehow? But anyway not so good since no interest in Pokemon.
It's a shame they closed down the Harry Potter version.
They sgould be launching a Momster Hunter themed game soon if that fits better. They also have Ingress, which is a secret agent/society themed and a bit more immersive on the AR front I think (from the little I tried of it).
There is also Orna from different devs which tries to be an AR oldschool RPG. Though it doesn't incentivise walking as much as those from Niantic.
