You can lie all you want to justify the reasons you “needed” your iPhone 4s or the latest Android device. You can tell yourself it will help out at the office or it will streamline your media, but what do you really use it for the most? Playing additively pointless games. Sure the other stuff is helpful too, but nothing beats killing time with a round of Temple Run. The only thing is, being trapped behind a little screen sure doesn’t make for an all-encompassing experience. With The Xappr Gun, you—and a friend if you’re playing a multi-player game like Lazer Tag—can enjoy some augmented reality shooting fun. Since tapping the screen to discharge your gun kinda feels like attacking someone by flicking them with your finger, The Xappr Gun will add a new depth of reality to your gaming. Now who wants to kill some aliens?
