To me Pokémon Go is a digital interactive installation as they set up the installation through the AR system in your phone.

Pokémon Go is a augmented reality game release on 2016 where you use the GPS on your phone to catch, train and battle with your Pokémon in real-life

The core way you play Pokémon go at the start of the game release is you go there will be a map for you to see where the Pokémon is and you go around catching Pokémon by throwing your pokeball.

To said the true at the start of the game release it have a lot of hype and I actually join in and play the for a while and then quite the game cause its really boring as all you can do is walk around hatching and catching Pokémon and that all you can do with it. That is what make me quite the game in a few month but what change the game to be fun later is that they add in boss battle and Pokémon gym because you start to interact with other people through the events and start making friend, that is where the true fun part of Pokémon go come from interacting with other people and make friends.

They have also have start to make interaction between Pokémon Go and their Main series game like letting you transfer Pokémon from Pokémon Go to the main game and one of the best event they promote it Is thought a Pokémon name as Meltan.

you can only evolve your Meltan to Melmetal Pokémon Go and there is no other way to do that in the main game so if the players want a Melmetal, they have to play Pokémon Go with make it a good way to get more people into Pokémon go.

Over all you can take Pokémon go as a interactive installation as that you can interact with it any time you want thought your phone and adding a bit of social interaction into it make it a fun interactive installation to play with.
