After conducting a week-long survey with multiple questions regarding Pokémon Go we were able to come out with concrete conclusions about the world’s first impressions of Pokémon Go.
We analyzed the data collected from the survey and we will be publishing the results this week, answering one question a day.
Our Pokémon GO week schedule will be answering the following questions:

Do You Think Pokemon Go could be Dangerous?
Pokemon Go warns its’ users every time before launching the game with the following messages:
“Remember to be alert at all times. “
“Stay aware of your surroundings. “
…and for a good reason. There have been many safety concerns even before officially releasing the game. Only a few days after the game’s release, Pokémon Go players have started sharing photos of scars that they got after accidently hurting themselves while playing the game. In some extreme cases people came close to seriously being injured or even dying. In America, a guy has shot some teenagers mistaking them for burglars while they were playing Pokémon Go, luckily only the car of the teenagers was damaged.
As our survey shows, most of the Pokemon Go players believe that the game raises some safety concerns. 77.5% believe that there is at least a little bit of danger hidden in the game.
