The kind of game you daydream about while at school or work because you can’t wait to come home and play some more.

      Same. I rocked that game for a year before Pokemon Go came out. It was insanely addictive. I would walk like 3-5 miles a day and I’d take way too many breaks at work to go hit the portals by my office.

        Family trips were awkward. I would make detours and hide the reason but just pointed out there was something awesome they should see.

        I also took part in global ops where I met irl with other players to move keys.

        When I think about it the real life component of that game is amazing.

          I participated in a few anomalies, both as support and an on ground person hitting the objectives. Shit was rad, man. I met a couple cool people and even business contacts through it.

      I was trying to think of a PC game until I saw your comment. It’s totally Ingress for me too. I was hooked and my area (Chicago burbs) had a very active player base. The ops and competition were intense! I really enjoyed the real-world tactical shit, closest I’ll ever get to feeling like I was part of a military operation.

      I still play it too, but not like before. It’s a great way to kill time and explore new places. I think I’m level 12, almost 13, and I’m lazily working towards more badges. I don’t understand what the red faction is all about and the other new stuff.
