Snapchat is moving into augmented reality (AR) gaming, and its first in-app title is called Ghost Phone.
The theme of the game revolves around finding a lost phone and trying to find out what happened to its original owner. What begins as a normal adventure soon turns spooky.
The game asks you to use your phone’s camera (not the phone you found, but your actual phone) to search for AR ghosts in your surroundings. As you find and capture more ghosts, you’ll unlock secrets that will help you uncover the plot, including text messages, apps, and more.
To access the game, go to the lenses section of the Snapchat app and scroll up to explore all the lenses. Search for “Ghost Phone” and the first lens with the “question mark on a phone” logo should be this one.
The new augmented reality game comes shortly after the Santa Monica, California-based company announced that it is adding a feature that will allow users to turn their NFTs into filters.
