Pokemon Go: Search far and wide and capture as many Pokemon as you can

Nintendo’s Pokemon Go “augmented reality” mobile game is out and is available in selected countries for now. The game is already available for both Android and iOS to users in New Zealand and Australia. Nintendo has made the game in association with Niantic – maker of Ingress, and The Pokemon Company.

The game will use your smartphone’s camera and sensors along with location algorithms to place Pokemon’s around in the game.

Even though the game is free to download, it will allow in-app purchases of PokeCoins starting from $1.49-$159.99.

At least one user has claimed that the game is incompatible with Android N in the review of the game on the Google Play store.
