It's an Augmented Reality game. Basically, you use your camera and use real life pictures and video to generate game content. As to why you would do this, because it's fun. I can definitely see kids going nuts for this.

People, whether kids or adults, love to collect things. It's part of human nature I guess. That's why Nintendo is so successful releasing games and toys where the point is to collect them.

This game just makes it more fun by using real life locations to collect in game things. It's a pretty neat idea IMO.
