## Description

The world is covered in fog. Walk to reveal it.<br><br>Lonely Explorer turns every walk into a game. Your steps clear the fog of war on a real map — streets you have never taken stay dark until you take them, and everything you reveal stays revealed forever.<br><br>• Fog of war — a live GPS track opens the map around you as you walk.<br>• Honest tracking — auto-pause at coffee stops and red lights, and a bus ride is never counted as a walk; your pace stays yours.<br>• Creatures — pixel-art creatures live by lakes, rivers, the sea and old buildings. Walk past one and it is yours, phone in your pocket or not. Collect them all in your bestiary.<br>• Your places — pin favourite spots with a photo and any emoji marker.<br>• Medals &amp; challenges — hand-drawn medals, monthly challenges, day streaks.<br>• Territories &amp; discoveries — see which districts you have covered and which parks, waters and bridges your fog uncovered.<br>• Friends — swap codes, peek at each other&#39;s fog, race the week.<br>• Leaderboard — ranked by ground revealed, fair at any latitude.<br>• Journal &amp; share cards — a picture of every walk, month or year.<br>• Offline maps — download your area, explore first, find Wi-Fi later.<br><br>No account, no e-mail, no subscription, no ads. Your walks back up to our own server so a new phone can pick up where the old one left off, and you can delete everything from inside the app.
