“AiR is seeking a breakthrough to this. We want to start from Hong Kong and showcase how a metaverse can meet various business needs. We also want to be the most accessible and practical metaverse by offering an intuitive interface so as to further our reach and allow a wide audience to experience the strength of the Web3 technology.”
At the heart of AiR is “Adventure in Reality”: melding mobile games and reality where users embark on an adventure in the real world through an app on their smartphone. Using just a mobile device, internet, modem or VR device, users can access the game scenes in AiR by simply scanning a QR code found in different places in real life. Users can also build, explore, adventure and trade in the virtual environment to earn cryptocurrencies, NFT and even physical rewards.
