Abstract
In an aspect, an augmented reality game system is provided including a mobile smart device such as a smart phone and a remotely controlled drone. The mobile smart phone device is programmed to display an augmented environment, being the real environment viewed by the camera and a virtual environment superimposed over images of the real environment. The drone is controlled via commands transmitted wirelessly by the mobile smart device. The mobile smart device is programmed to execute a video game, which includes activities requiring a player to control the drone in relation to the augmented environment displayed on the mobile smart device video screen. The drone is powered by a rechargeable battery, and the video game includes activities that keep the player occupied with the game while the drone's rechargeable battery recharges.
