As a nice gift for April 1st, LifeWonders released a nice gimmicky AR game. You can use any marker, or the specialized summoning circle to "summon" units through the phone's camera. It's completely free, and doesn't require anything to summon. Exclusive to this app, there's seven "secret" units, all of which are skins of existing units. So far, there's nothing rewarded for pulling every unit and filling your catalog.
It is currently unknown if the app will be functional after the 1st is over in Japan, or if they plan to expand upon this.
The given News page is also peppered with jokes. Below is a rough translation of the News section at the top of the page

「Real Summoning！？」
Using AR (Augmented Reality),
Tokyo Afterschool Summoners characters
can be summoned to the real world.
After summoning characters through the power of love,
have fun by taking lots of pictures！
Real Summoning？
By using a 「Marker」, it's possible to, on the 「Marker」
summon the characters of Housamo
by pulling from the Real Summoning Gacha！
In addition, by pulling from the Real Summoning Gacha
for already acquired characters,
they can be resummoned again and again at any time from the obtained card list.
You can only do this with this app, and should use this app,
because there's characters with limited skins.
About Markers
Regarding markers that can be used in this app:
you have two options: an image of your own, and the supplied Housamo Summon Marker」,
You can use either.
「Housamo Summon Marker」s can be optained from the following link: http://april.housamo.s3-website-ap-northeast-1.amazonaws.com/
For those using a 「Housamo Summon Marker」s,
you'll summon with higher accuracy.
You can summon using any images you've already prepared,
but for better results,
use a clear image surrounded by a frame!
For using either markers,
on how to use either/or,
please watch the following (above) video!
It appears every non-limited unit is currently available in the gacha is also available in this Real gacha. Summoning through the gacha requires absolutely nothing: no AR marker of any sort. Make sure the "Use AR Marker" button is green, tap the multi-summon button, then hit skip to quickly (quicker than usually summoning) clear your catalog.

Trivia
Through datamining, we can glean the following:
The APK's package name is jp.com.lifewonders.leibing, referring to Leib as Leib.
Asset files in housamo use rave, yet in HousamoAR, Leib is also referred to as leib, yet Salomon-kun isn't referred to by name.
The Seven Secret Skins are referred to as "uso" (うそ), which roughly means "lie" or "unbelievable".
