The success of Pokemon Go has been felt worldwide-and it hasn’t even hit every single country as of writing.

The new Pokemon Go app has unofficially landed in Winnipeg, and for Tessa Brenan, a childhood Pokemon fan, it’s bringing her childhood dreams to life. In this instance, Pokemon Go shows that gamification can be effective in coaxing users into paying for digital content.

The goal of the game is to track down and catch Pokemon characters on your phone, as they pop up on your screen, and you can find track down the characters just about anywhere. “Instead of playing video games in the basement, they’re outside”. The spots are usually local landmarks, but some area businesses are also discovering they’re part of the game. They posted pictures with virtual Pokemon, which attracted “several million” topics and clicks on Weibo and WeChat in China.

“Once Pokemon Go has come out, everybody’s talking about it, everyone’s helping each other out, so it’s really nice”.

Parents aggravated by their children’s summertime sloth have found it encouraging that the game gets kids off the couch and walking.

“I’ve caught some Pokemon”. Pokemon Go’s impressive user growth and app engagement numbers reflect a massive opportunity for advertisers to reach consumers. A woman playing the game in central Wyoming found a body in the Wind River near the city of Riverton.

The company released a statement saying that they are aware of these incidents and to encourage people to play with another person present, while remaining aware of your surroundings. Said Sam White, who spent his Monday on his bike with a friend, riding around Winnipeg to play.

Gamers aren’t deterred. According to SimilarWeb, which estimates web traffic, Pokemon Go is about to surpass Twitter in the number of daily active users. Some law enforcement officials are playing the game themselves, but they said, it’s still important to be safe.

The game is a new twist to the Nintendo classic, providing an augmented reality experience that incorporates using your phone’s Global Positioning System and camera to view creatures as you go hunting.
