The "Pokemon GO" session time is as long as the players want it to be. The length of the session is increased through walking to pit stops and collecting "Pokemon" characters. Most games are restricted to levels, but Niantic found a way for players to extend the game, go out, and without paying extra to extend the session time.

"Pokemon GO" allows people to collect Pokemon characters and items. However, its also allows the player's own character level up. The game requires that the players stay open for the play session to continue; keeping them from getting distracted. Switching apps is not also recommended to make players keep close attention to the game in case something new pops out,  Nintendo reported.

The game has built a strong retention since each session is unique. Each session allows different experiences connected to the real world, while its walking part is unique to each player because the environment and time of day is different for each one. The new "Pokemon GO" appears to each player at different intervals and places.

The "Pokemon GO," unlike most games that are restricted to an imaginary universe, the game allows players to play physically without them realizing that it is a form of exercise adding positive feels for the body. Moreover, it does not require players to join other quests, instead, the in-game social graph is an extension of the player's real world social graph. As owners of smartphones see someone playing the game, they become curious and download it as well. It allows you to interact socially by creating curiosity in other people.

In terms of monetization, "Pokemon GO" nails almost every attack angle to get players to make a payment. Players can extend their play session life using Pokeballs, but the rate of capturing Pokemon is through purchasing Incense. The game is not gated, but by Paying Niantic and Nintendo money, players are allowed to progress faster. However, there are aspects of the game where players can progress at their own pace without making any payments.

"Pokemon GO," with all of its features, created a powerful game loop that helps the game grow at an incredible rate.  Nintendo has already added $9 billion to their value and is continuing to rise as more players are downloading |the game, Techcrunch reported.

"Pokemon G" currently has 150 original Pokemon characters, which many players have been waiting for to catch.
