The discovery of Exotic Matter (XM), a resource of unknown origin, has sparked a covert struggle between two Factions. Cutting-edge XM technologies have completely transformed the Ingress Scanner, and it is now waiting for you to join this battle. THE WORLD IS YOUR GAME Explore the world around you and interact with places of cultural significance—such as public art installations, landmarks, and monuments—to collect valuable resources using your Ingress Scanner. CHOOSE A SIDE Fight for the Faction you believe in. Harness the power of XM to evolve mankind and discover our true destiny with The Enlightened, or protect humanity from a hostile takeover of the mind with The Resistance. BATTLE FOR CONTROL Dominate territories by linking Portals and creating Control Fields to achieve victory for your Faction. WORK TOGETHER Strategize and communicate with fellow Agents in your neighborhood and around the world. The optional Adventure Sync feature integrates with HealthKit to credit your distance traveled Agent Stats, even when Ingress is in the background. Agents must be over 13 years old (for residents outside of the European Economic Area); or over 16 years old or such age needed to consent to the processing of personal data in the Agent's country of residence (for residents of the European Economic Area). Unfortunately, no children may play Ingress. Support Contact us in-game by going to Settings > Help Center > Go.

I read about it on an iDownloadBlog review today. The images are so compelling that I will have to try it despite not having any experience with MMO's. The story sounds interesting too.

NYC #11 collider, Jul 14, 2014 Seriously.... All I have to read are "sign in with Google" and "tracking your location" to know that this game is a terrible, terrible idea. It looks like a cool game in anyone else's hands, but as is it will get no where near any of my devices. kuryushibo Active Member May 8, 2012 38 0 0 #12 kuryushibo, Jul 14, 2014 There's actually a lot more content besides the whole location based gaming. There's a backstory that they release periodically and it's been updated for over a year. There's teams who play together and events that occur. Though it's not that big in the US. jamesgecko New Member Dec 12, 2013 1 0 0 #13 jamesgecko, Jul 14, 2014 How are they supposed to make a multiplayer location-based game without having player accounts and knowing the locations of players as they play? It's not like it tracks you when you're not playing. Back in April-ish there was a hangout where the developers said it wasn't a sinister Google Maps improvement program, it was a hook to get more people to use Google+. collider Well-Known Member Patreon Bronze Mar 22, 2013 185 0 16 CEO/Owner Collider, Inc.

I haven't looked, but I guarantee there is a clause in the license that allows them to change their mind at any point. Just look at what they're doing with nest. With Google there is always a catch.

I'm not too worried. Google will find out precisely how boring I am and how little money I spend. I really dig location based games, so have at it, I say.

BadMrFrosty Well-Known Member Mar 26, 2013 80 0 0 #20 BadMrFrosty, Jul 15, 2014 What this game is doing is not nefarious or warrants anyone having to put on a tin foil hat. Actually, no one is forcing anyone to "play" it. If it improves Google Maps, something I use for free every day, while making a game out of it, why wouldn't I contribute? Who cares if I let them monitor the way I walk through NYC so they make their product better. Unlike others out there, at least they asked. (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
