Q&A
Ingress is an Augmented Reality (AR) mobile game developed by Niantic. In the game, players use their mobile devices to interact with a virtual world overlaid on the real world, capturing 'portals' at various locations around the globe.
To play Ingress, you need to download the app on your mobile device and choose a faction (either the Enlightened or the Resistance). Players explore the real world to find and capture portals, link them to create control fields, and collaborate with other players of their faction to achieve higher scores.
Yes, Ingress is free to play. However, players have the option to make in-game purchases for items that can enhance their gameplay experience.
