From what I observed, the killer AR game so far was the one involving Pokémons.

Even though people rarely play it while on a sofa, would it be workable with the current Apple AR hardware?

I never played the game myself, but wasn't AR just a decorative add-on to pokemonGo and not a necessary part of the game?

Not necessary at all, and one of the first things I turned off as it was distracting and would sometimes force you into weird positions in order to catch a pokemon.
