Ingress is a game where you use your phone to explore the world around you and discover new places. You can choose to be on one of two teams - the green team or the blue team. Each team has a special energy called XM that they use to try and take control of real-world locations called portals.
Portals can be things like statues, murals or landmarks in your city. When you discover a portal, you can interact with it using your phone. You can either hack it to get items that will help you in the game, or you can try to take control of it for your team.
To take control of a portal, you need to use special items called resonators. You place these around the portal and they create a force field that protects it from the other team. If you manage to place enough resonators around a portal, you'll be able to link it up to other portals owned by your team to create a giant field that covers your whole city!
The game is all about strategy and teamwork. You need to work together with other members of your team to take over as many portals as possible and defend them from the other team. You can communicate with your team using a special chat feature in the game.
Overall, Ingress is a fun way to explore your city and meet new people while playing a fun game on your phone. Just remember to always be safe and aware of your surroundings while playing!
