Flash forward to 2016 and Pokémon Go offers the same soft control, but now with mass appeal.
You might be thinking, mass appeal? What? With 10-year-olds?
It turns out that in the swipetarded zombie apocalypse, “Pokémon Go tops Twitter’s daily users, sees more engagement than Facebook.”
Who cares? What’s the point?
Essentially, spooks can get eyes-on places by directing swarms of zombies with mobile phones to seek out digital creatures and baubles at desired locations. Sure catch your Squirtle—while pointing your camera at a Hell’s Angels headquarters, for example.
