The Achilles heel (if there is one) is that the game is not something you can pick up and play whenever you happen to have a free moment. You have to be able to get up and go for a walk. Candy crush et al. can be played on the bus, in the restroom, in a meeting, on the couch, etc.
- jpindar 10y agoThat must depend on where you live. I've caught quite a few Pokemon from my couch.

From my home, I get weak enough reception that my character often runs circles around the neighbouring blocks, sometimes even getting close to the Pokéstop down the street... Also, bus is a perfect venue to play the game. Personally, half of my game activity is logged on a tram.

- BryantD 10y agoIt depends on where you live, but that in and of itself is a flaw -- ideally the game wouldn't be less fun for people who don't live in cities/large towns.
- free2rhyme214 10y agoMy work is right by a Pokestop so I just turn it on to collect Pokeballs and dump a bunch of potions & revives. I don't think the games flaw is making people walk around. That's what makes it unique plus the AR part. I think the flaw with Pokemon Go is trying to keep people interested, just like every other game.
