Abstract

Free All Monsters! is a novel location based mobile game which incorporates user generated content in an attempt to broaden its appeal by encouraging creativity. An online portal allows participants to create content which is then used to populate the game. The game was recently launched on the iPhone App Store and is aimed and designed to be a family orientated activity.
