"Augmented Reality" game for smartphones - fun and fitness!

[PSJ]

There is a free game for Android smartphones, from Google, that has today also been made available for iPhones.

It is an "Augmented Reality" game which means it uses the real world around us, and then adds extra features/information to it.

Essentially, it is a game of territorial control between two factions.

I've found it to be great fun, and especially good if you would like to walk/run/cycle more. Also can be very sociable if you want it to be.

The game is called Ingress. There is a sci-fi narrative alongside the game, but you can ignore that.

The two factions are Resistance (blue) and Enlightened (green). The 'Resistance' has more members, so I recommend signing up to Enlightened to help even up the numbers. Okay, there's a couple of million players worldwide...
