I didn't know that the game still was running, it's basically non-existent up here. Must be super popular in the populated areas still.

Even less people know that Ingress is still going. Both of the games are crap now, but they still exist.

I think the problem with both is that the game mechanic is pretty crap after you've levelled a bit. There is in reading grinding to get to further levels and worthwhile drops or collectibles become less frequent by virtue of your level already achieved. It happens in lots of games but its particularly egregious in these games whose main mechanic is button spamming rather than skilled.
