Walk the Earth - GPS Adventure

Walk the Earth is a GPS location game which rewards you for exploring/reaching random destinations! You can set how far you're willing to travel with a simple slider. The app then generates fresh targets in your surroundings at the push of a button. It's your job to get as close to them as possible!

If you reach a target, you'll be rewarded with Coins and Refreshes. Coins are simply an overall score; they measure how many places you've been, and how far you've travelled to get to them. Refreshes allow you to generate new targets, with each one costing a single Refresh. If your Refresh balance gets low, you'll automatically receive more the next day.

The app has a minimal user interface which is easy to read when you're out in the field. Once you've got a GPS signal, you can create new random targets using the Refresh button. When you find one you like, swipe through the navigation pages to see useful info about your destination.

The first page shows your destination's coordinates. Tapping on them will open your favourite mapping app, with a marker placed at the target. Google Maps with offline coverage is recommended. Next is a directional display, which shows the distance and compass bearing to your target in real-time. It also includes a pointer which updates based on your location trail. Simply start walking, and the arrow will show you which way to turn!

Each target has a specified Claim Radius, which dictates how close you need to get to receive a reward. Even if you can't access the exact destination, you may still be able to claim a partial reward for being nearby. More distant targets have a larger Claim Radius; this means that rewards are easier to access if you're willing to travel further! The Claim button on the user interface gives you all relevant reward info for your active target.

...and that's all there is to it!

Walk the Earth is really just for fun, and it aims to give you a small reason to go outside and see new places. Always be safe and sensible when using the app, and don't break the law! If a target is inaccessible, or it sits in restricted/private property, just refresh until you find a better one. Have fun out there!
