usually videogames are supposed to be an escape from reality you're not going to break a sweat as Nathan Drake rock climbing and uncharted but with augmented reality climbing is pretty difficult even on easy mode the game is set up using a laptop with a webcam and a projector its projected onto the rock-climbing wall with five checkpoints spread across the webcam syncs up with the game's user interface and registers each time it's tapped on the climb the game was created in Brooklyn Boulder Somerville location in 2015 by randori climbing the most popular game mode is time trial where you're racing up the walls to see who can finish the course the fastest climbers use every trick in the bag including swinging their legs to tap on the checkpoints to get the quickest times possible some people are really good at the game while others are not well that didn't go very well the good news about a are climbing though is that they can move them around and make it super easy so let's see how it plays out on easy mode thanks to the magic of augmented reality I went from chump to champion finishing the force in 5.5 seconds but even after all that I was still worn out for the day since its creation randori climbing has been used in gyms in New Zealand Japan and France
