When Wi2P Entertainment said it was going to develop a game that combined WiFi, cellphones, cellphone cameras and GPS, many people were skeptical. That is quite a lot of technology to pack into one game. Many people were curious as to what could be done with those applications. The reality of the game is that it is an advanced form of laser tag warfare that has completely revolutionized how cellphone games can be played. And what is this new game that has the industry abuzz? It is Wi-Fi Army.

Though Wi-Fi Army is the first of its kind, you can bet that it is not going to be the last. This is an incredible game that is as complex or as simple as you make it. Just imagine you and a group of your friends rushing through a mall trying to take pictures of each other to score points. You have to use your wits, your technology and some pure luck to emerge the victor.

That is the point of WiFi Army. Using GPS locators, Google Maps and WiFi systems you track your friends through neighborhoods and different terrains. The first person to take a picture (shoot) and upload has a kill according to the game. This is very exciting because it relies on facial recognition software within the phone. You do have to pre-load pictures of your friends or enemies in order to play though.

So what are the disadvantages of this game? The first is that you have to have an advanced phone that is capable of GPS location, Google Maps and a Wi-Fi connection. That means you have to be in a populated area that offers high speed connections. The second thing is that you have to be within 300 feet of your opponent. And you must have a steady hand to take the picture. If you are shaking and the picture is distorted you may not get the shot. Remember that the picture has to be recognized by the game’s software in order for the shot to count.

Even with the disadvantages, Wi-Fi Army seriously represents the next level in gaming for mobile devices. Once upon a time Prince of Persia was a sophisticated cell phone game, yet now that technology is moving forward at an alarming speed. This game is not for the faint of heart or for those who are paranoid about being tracked through their GPS systems. Some may say it is a conspiracy theorist’s worst nightmare come true.
