Abstract
This Masterâs Thesis proposes and implements a game design for an Android based massively multiplayer online augmented reality game. The proposed game design is based on an analysis of other popular augmented reality games such as Ingress, a game created by Google Inc. The game of this thesis motivates the players to meet in the real world and move in groups to certain points of interest like historic monuments. The spatial locality of players, which comes up when players move in groups, makes the game interesting for the research on mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs). The provided implementation of the game contains a centralized communication component that logs the network communication between players and therefore, is usable for data collection of network traffic in MANETs. The collected data
