The World Around You is Not What it Seems
As you move through the world, you may have the feeling something is wrong; things are not what they seem.
You are right.
You are not alone.
The Resistance has banded together to defend humanity and free thought from the Shapers and their human cooperatives, the Enlightened.
We need your help.
Do you have what it takes to stop the Enlightened and protect humanity from the Shaper threat?
With the help of your local Resistance teammates, you do not have to wait. Join the fight today.
Your mission is to defend the human race from a malevolent unknown energy and extra dimensional beings known as the "Shapers" who want to use this eXotic Matter to influence and control human destiny.
Their human cooperatives and our opponents, the "Enlightened", blindly believe these beings are benevolent and attempt to ease their ingression into our dimension.
You will strive to discover Portals and link them to create Control Fields over geographic areas to protect the population within.
The tally of minds (Mind Units) under the control of each faction is tracked constantly on the Intel map.
Your ultimate goal is to work with other members of your Faction locally and around the world to liberate humanity from Shaper ingression.
Join the Resistance today!
What is Ingress?
Ingress transforms the real world into the landscape for a global game of mystery, intrigue, and competition.
Our future is at stake.
And you must choose a side.
A mysterious energy has been unearthed by a team of scientists in Europe. The origin and purpose of this force is unknown, but some researchers believe it is influencing the way we think. We must control it or it will control us.
"The Enlightened" seek to embrace the power that this energy may bestow upon us.
"The Resistance" struggle to defend, and protect what’s left of our humanity.
Install Ingress and transform your world.
The World is the Game
Move through the real world using your Android or iPhone device and the Ingress app to discover and tap sources of this mysterious energy. Acquire objects to aid in your quest, deploy tech to capture territory, and ally with other players to advance the cause of the Enlightened or the Resistance.
Strategy
The struggle is being played out globally. Track the progress of players around the world, plan your next steps, and communicate with others using an Intelligence map.
Form Alliances
The struggle to save the planet spans the entire world. Groups of people acting together can be more effective than individuals acting alone. Cooperation across neighborhoods, cities, and countries will be needed to achieve the ultimate victory.
