Ingress

Ingress
Anyone playing? Ideal for playing on the bike.
I've had a few days in Edinburgh for New Year and actually found it good for finding some of the more obscure landmarks around where I've been staying. There are LOTS of landmarks in Edinburgh.

(BTW I've only been playing a week and chose Enlightenment)

I had it for a short while, but it shortened the battery life on my phone so much I got rid.

Holy thread resurrection...

I've started playing after an initial abortive attempt last year when I just couldn't' get my head around it. I had some free time recently and gave it another go, now addicted.
Yes it does hammer the battery, if you're playing the game you're best off carrying a portable power pack, no reason to be surprised at a flat battery. But having the game installed doesn't run the battery down, only when actually interacting with the app.

Yes, seems an ideal companion to cycling, probably better in summer though, thick gloves are a hassle on touch screens

Don't know anything about Ingress but @Spinney, @SatNavSaysStraightOn and others here have got me interested in Egrets.

We are up to ibis now! Keep up there at the back!

Just downloaded it and hacked a portal already and gained a portal key. Might be a good to take the Brompton sightseeing with this game

And a female Egret, Egress and their son Ingress. See, you know more than you thought.
