About Paparazzi - Augmented Reality
Qualcomm’s No.1 rated Augmented Reality game.
You will become a paparazzi, who has to make money by taking pictures of the celebrity trapped in Augmented Reality world. As we all know celebrities hate paparazzies, so as you get closer and snap more pictures of this superstar, he will become angry and he will try to break your camera. When he is really pissed off he will even jump on your phone. The only thing you can do then is try to shake him off, otherwise your camera will be damaged...and cameras cost a lot of money!
Instructions:
- Find one dollar bill or download and print the marker from: http://pixel-punch.com/paparazzi
- Make sure your marker/dollar bill is flat
- Start the game and point the camera of your phone at the marker or gray side of one dollar bill
- Enjoy it!
Paparazzi stands out of other AR applications:
1) In most of other AR games the virtual reality doesn't react to the Player - you can only observe it. Paparazzi takes it to another level - the virtual celebrity reacts to your actions and can even hold on your phone.
2) In most of other AR games once you take your camera off the marker the virtual reality is lost. Paparazzi splits gameplay into on-marker and off-marker experience, this way extending the boundaries of Augmented Reality world.

Tried this on my Asus Transformer TF101, it's a very clever app and a lot of fun. The refresh rate is very good, not much lag when you want to move around the celeb. Tried sitting the paper on top of a laptop and he projected very well in front of the screen. Have to give some praise to the devs for offering a downloadable/printable sheet to use instead of a dollar bill, makes it a bit easier for us outside the US, though I think some more global bank notes should maybe be included in the future, UK notes, Euros, Rubles, Yen etc. I have tried the game about ten times in the half hour or so since I've bought it, and there is a random bug that after taking a picture, the camera doesn't seem to return to full motion, all the previous frames kind of stick on the screen. Think this may be what others are talking about. This happens at random and you can restart the app to clear it, but I'm hoping for a patch at some point. When it's fixed it will be a 5*, until then 4, but really really good work.

No idea how to play this... I don't have a dollar bill and don't know which marker I could possibly have printed from my phone... Uninstalling, want my money back

Very good idea to combine accelerometer with the camera for the AR tracking and gameplay. :) Fun to play with, but hopefully there will be more content and challenges through future app updates.

Probably a great way to show off Android. My only complaint is that the game takes an initial picture whenever I hit the camera button, costing me $10 to begin with...even though I'm just trying to start the game.

I have no idea why others are complaining when I can run on a Samsung Continuum (Android 2.2.1) with no issues. Anyway, pretty fun little program and it's hilarious when the guy gets mad and jumps onto the camera. It's also great that there's an option for the marker or a dollar to use this; my printer has been out of ink for a while and I have little room to put it so the dollar option worked brilliantly.

It doesn't work on Asus Transformer. It works on Galaxy Tab. I'm giving it five stars because this is the first app I see which makes proper use of AR

Hmm, this used to work but now it seems to be abandoned by the dev. I dunno why but it crashes the moment I open it and I'm on my Samsung S7.. so yea, I guess it's no good now.
