Pokémon Go: A New Cultural Phenomenon in the Streets
Everyone’s familiar with the
Pokemon series that made its first appearance in the 90’s, it’s now in the
spotlight once again, thanks to Pokemon Go. Pokemon Go is a new smartphone game
app mimicking the Pokemon series game play. The world is rapidly turning into a
Pokemon Zoo, now anyone has the power to become the master of these pretty
little monsters. Kids trading cards
This is the first release of a
smartphone app game by Pokemon Company that’s been looking forward to building
a multi million video game since 1998. Niantic, the game designer, made a
collaboration with Google Maps in designing the mechanics of the game for real
time walking experience while playing the game. By using your smartphone’s GPS
signal and camera, it appears as if the wild Pokemon monsters are matching the
streets in your real world. Collectable cards
You can see your avatar walking
the streets in your locality, plus Poke-stops which are special locations that
house digital items like poke, ball, potions and eggs. There are also Gyms that can be searched by
the player to train Pokemon as well as battle. When walking and doing
exploration, players also called trainers, are welcomed by rustling grasses
that signal the presence of a Pokemon. Getting closer will trigger their
appearance and tapping a Pokemon will have the Poke battle initiated. Topps

Pokemon Go is available to play
for free. However, if you are impatient enough to collect some items during
game play, you can instead buy them through in-app purchases. The game is
becoming a cultural phenomenon though there are a few bugs that are yet to be
fixed, just as common with new games on their debut. For instance, the game may
freeze at times and if you reside in a suburban area, you’ll have fewer
Poke-stops, meaning less items for you. Trading card supplies
Despite these bugs as common with
any game on its first appearance, Pokemon Go is really fun playing and can be
addictive to those who love the Pokemon series. Niantic is already releasing
tweaks and patches to improve the game play and the popularity of the game is
expected to multiply greatly. The game has garnered the highest level of
attention on its first appearance, and this only the beginning. English
