Is Ingress about to add levels 17 to 24?

The evolution of game books: A review of Sol Invictus
I’m impressed by the technology and the format of Cubus Games’ SOL INVICTUS. This is a book for your smartphone or tablet and headphones are recommended. You can pick it up on Google Play or Apple’s App Store. There are iPhone and iPad versions available for the latter. As it happens SOL INVICTUS is the […]
