BRIEF
​

Sand Garden is an Experimental Augmented Reality game where the player moves physical sand to affect the in-game terrain. Picky villages pop up throughout the game and it's the players job to shape the world around the villages so they can grow and thrive in the environment of their choice. Or you can just make a volcano and blow everything up.
