POKEMON GO FROM YOUR COMPUTER!!

Would you like to play Pokemon GO without turning into one of those zombies who are stumbling around cities the world over these day

Pokemon GO is an augmented reality game by Nintendo. Just a few days after its release, some players have gotten in serious trouble by walking into unsafe neighborhoods, discovering dead bodies, or getting robbed. You don’t want to be one of them.

Here’s a way to play Pokemon GO from the comfort and safety of your home. All you need is a Windows computer, a bit of patience, and this guide.

Warning: To play Pokemon GO on your home PC, i.e., without physically moving around, you need to engage a method called GPS spoofing. Strictly speaking, this is a violation of the developer’s Terms of Service and could get you temporarily or permanently banned from the game. Use at your own risk!

What You Need
To set up Pokemon GO on Windows using BlueStacks, you need to set up a bunch of tools in exactly the right order.

Update: One of the apps needed to make this method work is (now?) a paid app. We have added a free alternative using the Nox App Player at the bottom of this article.
