Review puzzles and construction sets falling under the category of augmented reality games

Abstract

In this article, the authors review puzzles and construction sets falling under the category of augmented reality games and, at the same time, serving as the elements of TUI interfaces. The review does not include games based on jigsaw puzzles (dissection puzzles, where the player has to put together a set of fragments of variously shaped images). Transreality puzzles are electronic-mechanical puzzles (usually three-dimensional), where the gameplay takes place both in the domain of a virtual game, and in that of a mechanical device.
