<\/figure>\n<\/div>\nIn an interview Niantic CEO John Hanke said that it took him 20 years to build this game which and only one week for it to become a phenomenon.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe game itself is intended to facilitate the real-life stuff,” John Hanke reportedly said in an interview. The game is super addictive and users keep on playing it all day long. There is so much strain on the server that some people are also experiencing several crashes during the sessions. Niantic is said to have know about this crashing issues and are working really hard to get over this.<\/p>\n
While the Niantic team is working to fix the capacity of the server to avoid any further crashes in the game the roll out of Pokemon Go is stopped at international level to the countries like The United Kingdom and The Netherlands. While building this game there were three main objectives that were kept in mind which were:<\/p>\n
Pokemon Go making people Exercise<\/strong><\/h2>\nMany fitness apps keeps you on your toes, while Pokemon Go promises to keep you fit and you don\u2019t have to go any intense workout routine.Pokemon Go is built in such a way that rather than putting any pressure on you , it very smartly gets you moving and also gives you the opportunity to earn reward points.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n<\/div>\nEven though Pokemon go was a smashing hit overnight but years of hard work has gone into it to make it such a big hit. Pokemon Go is considered to be a sequence of Ingress. Ingress is another major hit in the world and was developed by Niantic. This game was an iOS and Android based game and the main objective of the game was to challenge players to find the world around them and assert territory.<\/p>\n
Major social platforms like Facebook, Twitter & Google are trending with Pokemon<\/strong> and everyone around us is getting crazy for catching up Pokemon, no matter from where \u2013 it can be on the road, in parks, in office cubicles and even in the public bathrooms beside the roads.<\/p>\nSuper Addictive<\/h2>\n
The main reason for this game to be so very addictive is that people are finding the Pokemon for their collection even by travelling the countries and by getting offs from their offices.<\/p>\n
Your privacy is compromised with Pokemon go success<\/h2>\n
Well, let’s reveal this for those who are still not aware about this. In simple terms, Pok\u00e9mon Go uses the GPS and clock of your smartphone to detect your gameplay location and timings and make the virtual Pokemon visible around you in the application installed in your smartphone so you can target the pokemon with the pokemon Ball and catch them up using your camera.<\/p>\n
Encouraging People to Travel across the world<\/h2>\n
The more you travel around to different locations, more types of Pok\u00e9mon will are shown to you depending upon the time and the location at the moment you are. This is the first time that any mobile app<\/a> is encouraging the users to travel outdoor in the real world to enjoy the beauty of the virtual things in augmented reality.<\/p>\nTrending Everywhere<\/h2>\n
