iDragon Ball Sports is an augmented reality game inspired by the search for the dragon balls from the famous Dragon Ball TV series. Now you can fulfill your childhood dream and become the one who looks throughout the city to find the magic balls. Go anywhere in the world with the iPhone GPS, select one of the multiple difficulty levels (beginner, very easy, easy, normal, difficult, extreme, Saiyan, Super Saiyan) and the balls will be dispersed randomly around your current location at various distances and angles.

There are 2 view modes to locate the balls. In Radar mode you can locate the balls using an astonishing radar whose design and functionality are inspired by the TV series. In map mode you can view your location and the location of the balls on a map with different degrees of zoom and map types (normal, satellite, and hybrid). In addition, by clicking on a ball you can open a panel that shows the real time distance of the ball away from your current location.

Go walking through the city to find the balls. The distance you need to cover depends on the selected difficulty, which can range from approximately 50m in the easiest mode to several kilometers in Super Saiyan level. To catch a ball it is necessary to get within 15-20 meters of it. But what happens if a ball lands in an inaccessible place? What happens if a ball falls into a river, on a football field or inside an inaccessible building ? Dont worry! You can throw a virtual iKameha within a radius of 900m from your position, and therefore you can move the balls to more accessible locations.

Whenever you find a magic ball it is stored in a virtual bag. You can save the state of the game and continue it at any place or time, this way the search for the balls may take several days. Discover on your own what happens when you find the 7 balls! At the end of each game you get a score depending on the time taken to find the 7 balls and the chosen difficulty. You can view a detailed summary of all your games. You can compete against players from all around the world to be the fastest iDragon ball finder! The application has complete support for Game Center and Facebook leaderboards and achievements. Will you be able to be the fastest? are you a real Super Saiyan?

The app integrates Facebook and Twitter sharing capabilities. Do not miss sharing the great feats you can achieve with this game with your friends.

With iDragon Ball Sports it is also possible to detect other players anywhere in the world. You can view their scores, position and distance in real time. It is ideal for group sports and meeting new friends.

Note: Also available for devices without real GPS via wifi triangulation (you must have good wifi coverage over the dispersion area)

Pros and cons of iDragon Ball Sports app for iPhone and iPad

iDragon Ball Sports app good for

This is a lot of fun to complete and is great to play with kids too. I highly recommend this to DBZ fans and parents that want to give their kids a reason to get outside and play.
I feel myself as a saiyan! Nice game! Not quite an iPhone game and thats the cool part of it! You dont stay stuck on your iPhone, but search all over the neighbourhood for dragonballs!
Sickest iPhone app. Never had so much fun driving around with my friends. Going out at night and searching through the woods for dragonballs. This app is totally worth it. Te map is very touch sensitive and slightly off but it still works great. Get this!
To move, u literally move. Say theres a dragon ball at the park, then you go to the park!!! Simple as that! Can u make the map accurate? The maps take a while to load, can u fix that 2?
Cool because it makes me feel like a true sayin but when I tried it with my ipod touch it would mess up on my locations n would not move when I move. I am going to have to try it with my auntis iPhone to see if it really works
I played this with my friend we had to search my whole neighborhood! It was great.

Some bad moments

WTF! App was fun, before 3.0 upgrade, heres hoping they get us an update someday. Until then, I had to take back my 5 star rating. :-(
It does need an uptate I bet.. Im at my house and on the map it says Im outside...
How do i get it to work. It throws the balls and then nothing happens after that. I get no maps and no matter where I go me or the balls move at all
This has the potential to be one of the best apps in the world....but I just went walking around the whole neighborhood and nothing happened... Please explain how it works or update it because I cannot figure out how to move...every once in a while I would find myself on the map but then no matter what type of map I used it still made me stand still...oh and speaking of the map I can only seem to use the map one on the map option...I can use radar also but that one always says your 50 m away so it doesnt help...the terrain,hybrid,and satellite do NOT work....if u fix all this on the update i mite give it 5 stars and reccomend it to everybody at my school...please reply as soon as possible...within february if you could
pleas make it compatibal with ipod touch version 3.0 the gps onthe map is way off and the dot on the screen doesent move as i move when im at the location of the dragonballs the map says im somewhere els pleas fix it as soon as possible
Bad just terrible because when ever I start a thing it goes back to the home menu. Pleaseeeeee fix this app!!!!!!!!!
