Ingress

This is sad that I am being forced to give this game a 1 star. Two years ago I would have given a 5 star and praised it. I even through about becoming a Paid member for the perks. Unfortunately, I upset a player whom has spent the last two years doing everything he can to make the game not enjoyable by targeting my every activity in the game to the point where it’s pointless to even bother playing. I will spend my time playing the game and by the rules of the game and they player cheats and constantly targets me. Why you asked, because he wanted to play both sides of the game, with Multiple Accounts, when he felt like it. Just not allowed to. In the game, the main goal is capture portals, collect Keys, create links to create fields. Big version of Risk. This player will also use these spare accounts to throw links in the same color as me to block my links to stop me from playing the game Years ago, if you took a plane somewhere your account got banned for traveling to fast and tagged as Spoofing. Your account wiped and you had to start over with no chance of defending yourself. Today, you just need a cell phone and a laptop to alter your location and you can travel the world without even leaving your mother’s basement and Niantic will not lift a finger to stop you. Look at player EchoFeenix. This 75+ year old man that walks with a cane, has his main account that he alters his location to defeat players with better mobility than himself. And if the location isn’t worth the risk of getting caught, he uses one of his 8 or more Accounts that he created, got to L7 and sits on for months. Then when he needs to attack hard to reach locations, he uses these spare accounts. So you say, just report the activity to Niantic. Well the individuals who manages the game could care less the effect this makes on the game and the players whom play it. Don’t waste your time getting into this game. At the current way it is managed, I predict it will be gone in the near future due to players leaving from lack of enforcement of the very rules listed on Niantic website. After playing for 12+ years it is a shame to see such a great game become so mismanaged.

It’s friendly competitive way to get out and have clandestine experiences and possibly meet people. It’s as close to being like a movie spy as you can get.

Have been playing this game for years and have loved every aspect of it. The commitment level is whatever you want it to be, got free time play alot, don’t have a lot of free time don’t have to play much. Want to get out and visit new places then take part in anomalies!

A fun, really cool, and unusual ar game. If you like pokemon Go, you’ll like this! We need more players, to increase the rivalry, and support the team! Really cool vibe.

Ignore all the 1 star reviews, it's just people yapping about "big data" bugs that were patched a while ago, and people who have a skill issue, it's a fun game if you like exploring, and you can always use a VPN if you can't get out.

Niantic continues to ignore women who report stalking behavior from men. This is completely unacceptable and unsafe. I have reported a player who is actively stalking me, harassing me, cheating, etc and Niantic does NOTHING. They don’t care about women or safety for female players. It’s gotten so bad I’ve made police reports and my only option at this point is to completely dump the game. Don’t let a game get you harmed by toxic players.
