Abstract  

The Backseat Gaming prototype is a context dependent mobile game. It uses the changing scenery and sense of motion created during car travel to generate a compelling game experience. We discuss what road­side objects could be of use to create an understandable and fun mobile game, with reference to emerging game research as well as theories in highway design. We also present initial user feedback on the gaming experience.
