About this game

Welcome to the world of Ingress Prime, Agent. The fate of this universe, and perhaps others, depends on you. 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.

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.

Ratings and reviews

Decent, but as is typical, niantic finds ways to set the experience back. Red portals add more to do, but get out of control very quickly. Kinetic capsules allow for more gear farming, but are disorganized, lack important types of items, and replaced quantum capsules entirely. It's even become harder to gear up in enemy dominated areas, making gameplay that much more irritating. Tl;Dr: fun enough if you have loads of time and teammates, otherwise not so much.

The game itself seems interesting but it isn't executed very well. My tutorial broke so I have to figure everything out on my own. I've had a lot unusual glitches in the game. For example, for a while it put me in the ocean off the coast of Africa then it put me in Michigan (I wasn't anywhere near Michigan). I've uninstalled and reinstalled the game at least a dozen times now. Support has been more or less responsive but I feel like I'm left figuring it out on my own.

The Red faction, a fun concept at first, is now affecting the gameplay much more negatively. It is not feasible to keep wasting time fighting against something artificial which spreads much faster, at a higher rate, than any human opponent! It also keeps coming back to the same places that were cleared before. This also endangers players that have to travel through unknown, unsafe areas to clear red links. My CORE subscription and the game itself may have to be done away with if this goes on.
