- How is the game?
In Pokémon GO, the objective is to capture and collect Pokémon scattered throughout cities around the world. The game uses the location of your smartphone and you have to travel to the location to capture the pokémon. Nintendo's new game draws attention because it also uses augmented reality, allowing players to see pokemons through their cell phone camera.
Only available for Android and iOS smartphones, Pokémon Go! it is an adventure that requires the internet and location features turned on. The game is suitable for those who are always on the move, as the ideal is to have freedom to walk through neighborhoods, squares, etc.
In the game, there are Pokéstops, places of interest where you can find, in addition to pokémons, pokéballs and other things. Soon, Nintendo intends to release battles and other events (promo images of the game make that clear), but at the moment, the game boils down to collecting pokemons.
For now, “Pokémon GO” only has the first 151 little monsters in the franchise. The Pokémon Company has yet to reveal plans to add the remnants.

– Does it work on weak phones?
A big question from our readers is whether the game works on devices with little processing power. Well, we tested it on a Galaxy Core, one of the weakest Android devices. The cell phone suffers a lot, but it manages to run the game. already in Moto G 2014, the game runs very well. That is, it seems that the minimum requirement on Android is a device Dual-Core 1.0 GHZ e 1GB de RAM. On iOS, the minimum requirement is a device with iOS 8.0, that is, at least iPhone 4S.
- Opinion
After great releases this year like Clash Royale, there's no doubt that the next fever will be Pokémon Go! The game that doesn't look real can be played right now and the official launch is right around the corner (Thursday). Any doubts that it will be epic?
