Parallel Kingdom: location-based MMORPG for Android

I recently came across a couple of Android apps with huge potential. Here is a quick review:

Parallel Kingdom

Parallel Kingdom is a location-based Massively Multiplayer Role Playing Game (MMORPG) developed for Android. Parallel Kingdom uses real world prompts as its basis for the virtual world, giving users the ability to attack, dance, hug or team up with anyone around them.

Parallel Kingdom allows you to mine resources, build buildings, craft items, trade goods, meet new people, found kingdoms, lead wars, and explore the real virtual world around you. Here is a video review done by AndroidApps.com:

City Audioguides

This one looks very interesting, but it appears that the project was dropped. If anyone has information about this project, please let me know. Here is some information on it:

By using the Android framework positioning tools and other technologies the developers City Audioguides are aiming to improve your travel experiences by delivering relevant audio content information for historical venues, museum, and any other location of interest.

“Turning streets into museums and creating an environment where it’s easy to learn and share and to get the most out of our travels. This project is based on the belief that access to culture should be freely available to everyone.”

“Bringing museum-like audioguides to a larger scope.”
