Just days after its release on July 6th, the virtual reality game which sees users tracking and capturing Pokémon as they appear in the real world, has seen people become insanely obsessed with the game.
That means falling over, getting mugged, catching Pokémon while their partner is trying to give birth – and ditching their significant others to go hunting.
And Pokémon Go widows aren’t happy.
