Cross-device interaction is a technology that has increased the relationship between people and the different devices that exist today. This allows users to manipulate information through gestures or body movements. Likewise, the recent demand for smart devices has motivated users to increase their use in different contexts. That is why in this research we propose a platform video game for Android mobile devices called LEAPER. This is a video game that uses the Screen Sharing, Synchronization and Simultaneity design patterns, which allows the user to use several Android operating system devices to interact with each other. In addition, the connectivity of the devices is established by the Pinch gesture. The videogame was tested by 20 users, which have different models of the Android operating system. These participants have successfully demonstrated the cross-device interaction that LEAPER offers.
