Gaming in the real world <\/p>\n

Guided by the motto \u2018We do it in public<\/strong><\/a>\u2018, Moment Factory aims to constantly create new ways for people to create connections as they gather and engage.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt Moment Factory, we\u2019ve always believed that real human connections happen through playful, collective moments,\u201d <\/strong>says Jonathan St-Onge, <\/strong>executive director of Moment Factory Originals. <\/p>\n

\u201cBack in 2017, what started as an R&D experiment in our Montreal studio grew into one of Moment Factory Originals\u2019 most interactive attractions: The Augmented Games Collection. This motion-powered gaming platform, born from curiosity, creativity, and a deep desire to bring people together, turns movement into competition, and spectators into players. <\/p>\n

\u201cSince then, it has evolved into a scalable, data-driven solution designed to help operators boost engagement, increase dwell time, and deliver memorable and socially-connected experiences in entertainment destinations around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

Moment Factory has continued to refine the technology, games, and product adaptability that shape Augmented Games today. The resulting platform combines real-world movement with digital gaming, without the need for wearables or controllers. Players enjoy full-body participation, powered by intelligent motion-tracking technology.<\/p>\n

Simple integration & broad market appeal <\/p>\n

As a turnkey immersive attraction, Augmented Games is designed for rapid setup, easy operation, and minimal staffing. Its modular, plug-and-play platform adapts to a wide variety of footprints and formats, whether installed on floors, walls, or across multiple surfaces. <\/p>\n

Scalable from compact zones to large multi-surface environments, it suits both permanent and temporary deployments in FECs, arcades, malls, resorts, cruise ships, festivals, and brand activations. <\/p>\n

Its planned rollout across more than a dozen Lane 7 venues by 2027, in collaboration with the UK\u2019s leading competitive socialising brand, highlights its versatility and growing traction in the market.<\/p>\n

This year, the studio introduced new LED floors to complement the projection-based options that have been used for many years, making the platform even more adaptable to venues of all sizes and technical infrastructures. These LED floors are particularly well-suited for brightly lit environments.<\/p>\n

Flexible integration and proven ROI <\/p>\n

Built to be flexible, Moment Factory\u2019s Augmented Games can be integrated into an existing connected visitor journey, as seen in venues like Party Day in China and Sparkx in Belgium. The open Augmented Games API enables user data collection during each play session, enhancing engagement within the venue\u2019s ecosystem. This future-proof solution is built to evolve alongside AI, AR, and VR advancements.<\/p>\n

The studio reports an average of 700 to 1,000 weekly sessions per playground, with ROI typically achieved within 12 to 18 months. Operators benefit from increased revenue, extended dwell time, and higher secondary spending, while elevating overall guest engagement and diversifying their entertainment mix.<\/p>\n

To support sustained interest without adding operational complexity, fresh content cycles are regularly introduced, encouraging repeat visits and maintaining a high level of excitement. Augmented Games\u2019 expanding library is designed to deliver ongoing novelty, drawing on over eight years of client data and Moment Factory\u2019s deep expertise in immersive attraction design<\/strong><\/a>. <\/p>\n

The studio is currently developing a next-generation game catalogue, from strategy-based challenges to fast-paced action and racing games, tailored for players of all ages and skill levels.<\/p>\n

\"Moment<\/a> Global expansion & market validation <\/p>\n

Moment Factory\u2019s Augmented Games\u2019 simultaneous rollout across these major FECs highlights the product\u2019s scalability and global market fit.<\/p>\n

Looking ahead, the studio remains committed to continuous evolution, ensuring Augmented Games adapts to emerging trends and continues to transform entertainment destinations worldwide. To enquire about hosting the Augmented Games in your venue, please email<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n
