My wife sheepishly told me she downloaded Pokemon Go on her phone last night. I didn’t really know what she was talking about so I made some sort of noise that sounded vaguely supportive and understanding.
Today I see reports of people going crazy about this game and I can see why. I’m still debating whether I want to actually install the game and play it but I know that I have temporarily lost my wife to the game for now. It’s probably only a matter of time until our son follows …
In the meantime, I had to share this great xkcd cartoon highlighting a way to have even more fun with fans.
Postscript (2016-07-12):
iMore has published a guide for new Pokémon players titled “Beginner’s guide: How to play Pokémon Go!“. I know this is just feeding the habit (in particular my wife who may be lost to us for a few weeks) but I’m a sharer.
Hah! I specifically didnt show the kids the game while walking to school today. So you cant blame me when Aaron wants to download it too 😉
