About Ingress

✮ Winner of the Grand Prize at the 2015 Japanese Media Arts Festival

Ingress transforms the real world into the landscape for a global game of mystery, intrigue, and competition.

Our future is at stake. You must choose a side.

A mysterious energy has been unearthed by a team of scientists in Europe. The origin and purpose of this force is unknown, but some researchers believe it is influencing the way we think. We must control it or it will control us.

“The Enlightened” seek to embrace the power that this energy may bestow upon us. “The Resistance” struggle to defend, and protect what’s left of our humanity.

Install Ingress and transform your world.

The World is the Game
Move through the real world using your Android device and the Ingress app to discover and tap sources of this mysterious energy. Acquire objects to aid in your quest, deploy tech to capture territory, and ally with other players to advance the cause of the Enlightened or the Resistance.

Strategy
The struggle is being played out globally. Track the progress of players around the world, plan your next steps, and communicate with others using an Intelligence map.

What is the Niantic Project?
Is this just a game? An Investigation Board (http://www.google.com/+NianticProject) filled with cryptic clues and secret codes awaits. The story evolves everyday. Powerful secrets and game tech are there to be unlocked.

Form Alliances
The struggle to save the planet spans the entire world. Groups of people acting together can be more effective than individuals acting alone. Cooperation across neighborhoods, cities, and countries will be needed to achieve the ultimate victory.

Note: Ingress uses the "Read_Contacts" app permission to make it easier to invite your friends to join you in your mission to save the world. The app will not contact anyone without your explicit action to recruit a particular friend.

*****(GPS issues that were present seem to have been resolved. Thank you.)******* This is a game that defines the purpose of technology. I see families sitting outside (together) in the evenings. Kids playing. People interacting again, being competitive and yet still willing to help you. I could go on and on but you would do better to just give it a chance.

Please give verification security button for load or dig history activities (make more harder to guardian destroyer script) ... please protect us from guardian counter and spoofer.. i see fake gps and etc still can be running safely...

Newest version: support is still incompetent. Spoofers still ingame - the same ones since the early days. Older comment: Non-existing support. Literally no way to get directly in touch with developers so they can respond personally. Shame, because the game concept is great. Founder-player.

K70%
by K####:

This game used to be inovative and actively developed but its only dust and spiderwebs now. Nothing exciting added in ages. Its also INFESTED with Spammers. A lot of spammers. Ingame comm chat is almost unusable because of spam. While location spoofers happily zip around, niantic bans regular players because of semi auto ban system. Also Niantic favors resistance faction. Why not blue and green combo app logo? Having it in blue only delivers clear message.

K70%
by K####:

This is not something you want to get involved with. Ingress is an amazing game, but some players are really terrible people, and the nature of the game enables stalking and harassment in a level I could have never imagined. Niantic support is worthless.

K70%
by K####:

It was great when I first started but between the scrapers, spoofers and Niantic's inability to stop either of these two forms of cheating, the game has lost its enjoyment. The Ingress community has suggested numerous methods for Niantic to use in order that the cheating be stopped, but they are either incapable, unwilling or worse, indifferent, to solving the issue once and for all. This game will be killed off by Niantic not listening to the player base. This review is subject to be changed in the event that Niantic stops scrapers and spoofers. Edit 18/4/17: Niantic has implemented better anti-spoofing measures, but it is still hit and miss. Subsequently the delay between reporting spoofers and the reports being acted upon has been reduced substantially, although Niantic still aren't divulging the requirements for a successful report. Rating raised from 1 star to 2 stars.

The game as fun as long as they don't terminate you with no explanation as to why, and then will not let you delete the missions you created or manage them and keeps all money you spend with the in-app options.

Q70%
by Q####:

Ingress is a great game if you like to be social and travel. Otherwise you won't like it. You have to go out and find interesting places around you (portals). And connecting with local players helps you level faster, but is pretty much required if there are lot of opposing players in your area.

Wonderful game. I've gotten out and about and learned about my town and surrounding areas. I've made some great friends that play. Highly recommend! Go Enlightened!!

When creating links between portals,i suggest there are no limit when crossing other links,this will help so much.

v1.115.1 repeatedly crashes at start up, making the time to load approx 10 minutes each time. Quick load time is critical, and this version fails big time. I waste 20-30 min per day trying to get it to load. This has been going on for over a month now, 2 versions. Look at all the damn comments niantic! Embarrassing quality control. v1.116.1 same problem

N70%
by N####:

Remote recharge sometimes doesn't work when indoors. The XM bar depletes but nothing is charged. When back to main screen of scanner, the original amount of XM before attempting to recharge reappears. Also, why is only 1 key given when glyphing and I request more keys, and after entering the full set of glyphs correctly, when the awarded drops message says, "Bonus +1 Key," there is only 1 key gained?

by K####:

BE CAREFUL with the player METROGNOME. His relentless stalking of players from both teams both in and out of gameplay has caused many issues and niantic refuse to deal with it, leaving many players like myself to quit playing altogether.

R70%
by R####:

Fast tired of updates being forced on us. I had only just updated all apps and niantic snuck an ingress update in. Ok..so it was updated but you are forced to update immediately more or less. Not so good when you are unaware of an update and on a bus and needing to perform an action for your scanner to tell you it is out of date or a link you do doesn't register officially. You quit to reload to be told it is out of date.

Lots of fun walking/cycling/driving, finding works of art around you, and meeting new people. In my opinion though, ban appeals should allow for pledges of fair play by other players, to eliminate unfair bans.

K70%
by K####:

Everything about this game is perfect. It's a game that won't get boring because it always has you moving around. It's exciting to see portals get taken and linked in real time by other people. Also, you could write a series on the storyline.

Great Community . It gets you out in the world to discover all sorts of cool places. I travel some and run into other players all over the place, from Machu Picchu to rural West Virginia

K70%
by K####:

Explore the world around you, both the real world and the exotic one through this game. Gameplay is such that you need to be at specific locations IRL to play. A great exercise motivator, it even has an acheivement (medal) for distance walked. Good job getting rid of spam. Hope you adapt when they do.

This app needs one thing to compete with others like it, updates. This app has not gotten a decent update in so long, this leaves players feeling eventually bored with it because nothing new is happening. This app also looks a bit dated, everything from the sound effects to the map is old, this app needs a face lift, maybe a new map look or a completely redesigned app? Overall a great game, but since Niantic released Pokemon Go this app feels like it's been left in the dust :(

Very competitive game. Let me send you an invite, I think the game sends you a kit to help you get started. Hit me up at harleyh (at) g mail dot com

This used to be the greatest game ever but now it is simply my addiction to it that keeps me justifying all of the time I waste on it. The game has become stagnant due to the many changes over the past two years I have seen made. The weapons have been nerfed, the drops are completely insufficient to play within an area highly played by the opposing faction, the proliferation of the*very rare* AXA shield has ruined what used to be an ever changing battlefield... All in all the only people in my area that still play are buying gear, using multiple accounts and holding gear on as many accounts as they can. This has turned the best game ever to whoever cheats the best wins.

Ok game does have the odd hiccup and memory leak. Does use a lot of data. Add new things and fix spoofers and comm spam. Rip guardian fix the bloody spoofers

I took two star off- one for pioneers and one for lack of support from Niantic. I was illegitimately banned for using power saving mode, and spoofers fly and paint whole cities and nothing happens to them!

Having problems with the newest update. Icon showing where i am no longer shows up, and im frequently getting "no items" messages and my actions not working on the portals.

Love the concept. Is there anyway to give feedback? Ie could we get the option to 'favorite' keys or name capsules? Ho would I even ask?

Well designed game. It can be played with a number of play styles. The world is your playground. Ive met new people and know my neighborhood more than ever. Better than hunting stuffed animals.

This game is awesome, great idea, ultra motivated and involved community! It's more than a game, it's almost a lifestyle. Awesome opportunity to meet people, spend quality time with them and to discover the world around you!

Explore your local area, meet new people. Visit new locations, engage with the community. Seeing areas/interesting spots that you don't know existed. Choose a side.

Freezes or refuses to accept my account when I try to make one, saying I "already have this account on this device", even though the log in came up because "there are no accounts on this device". If I already have an account on this device like this stupid app thinks I do, why doesn't it just log me in instead of saying the account already exists?

Portrait mode only, AM/PM timestamps, poor inventory navigation. Portal creation process is disabled, and editing takes months. Intel map lacks fuctionality.
