Top Ten Augmented Reality Games of All Time

Pokemon Go is perhaps one of the first augmented reality games to rise on the top, which started the hot trend of augmented app development. Since early July 2016, Pokemon Go had gained over hundred million downloads, and is still played among millions as of today although common technical issues drove considerable amounts of people off the game. It is still considered one of the best mobile games of all time.
