ActiveHero: Step Counter RPG

Your steps are the adventure. ActiveHero turns the walking you already do into a dark pixel-art quest. Walk, and your hero walks. Work out, and your hero levels up. Sleep, and your hero rests. Every step moves them down the road, into fights, through dungeons and home to a camp that grows into a city.

YOUR STEPS MOVE YOUR HERO • Every ten steps is a turn. Your hero walks on, meets what lives on the road and fights it, so a walk to work is a run of battles. • 30 places to fight in, across the Plains, the Mountains, the Water and the Temples, each with its own monsters, by day and by night. • Open the app to watch. Close it and your hero carries on; a report of everything that happened is waiting when you come back.

WORKOUTS BECOME ADVENTURES • Runs, rides, hikes, swims, strength, HIIT, yoga, dance, rowing, team and racket sports: a workout recorded on your watch or phone plays out as an adventure of its own. • Active calories become XP, weighed by the kind of workout, so a strength session counts as well as a long run. • Swims take your hero into the Water, where they swim with the fish and with the things beneath. • A real workout keeps your streak alive on a day you fall short of your steps.

SLEEP IS REST • A night's sleep earns rest XP for every hour, up to eight. • Sleep seven hours or more and wake Well Rested: more XP and more damage until 9 pm.

SKILLS LEARNED FROM YOUR HABITS • 24 skills, earned by how you really live. Meet your step goal seven days running for Iron Leg. Climb the stairs for Aggressive Climber. Walk before 8 am for Early Bird. Swim for Deep Diver. • Skills are yours for good. Switch them on and build your hero your way.

PETS • 14 companions to find on companion quests: a Dawn Fox, a Moon Owl, a River Otter, a Baby Gryphon and more. • Your pet walks beside you and swims beside you, and grows up on the steps you take together.

MONSTERS, DUNGEONS AND SECRETS • Hundreds of monsters, from bandits on the road to things that should never have woken. • 60 dungeons, bosses behind iron doors, and secret dungeons for those who keep walking. • The Lexicon keeps every creature you meet. The rest wait in the dark as silhouettes.

LOOT • Chests on the road and in dungeons, common, rare, unique and legendary, each opened with its own reveal. • Weapons, helmets, armour, boots and trinkets, every piece worn on your hero, with bonuses that roll. • Relics that only wake after weeks of a real habit.

YOUR CAMP BECOMES A CITY • Spend your gold to grow your camp into a house, a village, a town and at last a city. • Build a cauldron for potions, a kennel for your pets, Wren's shop and more.

KEEP THE FIRE BURNING • Meet your step goal, or do a real workout, to keep your streak. Streak chests grow from wood to iron, gold and legendary. • Streak freezes cover the odd missed day.

AND MORE • Daily, weekly and monthly quests, and travelling traders (not every one of them honest). • Leaderboards for Power, dungeons, bosses and more, only if you choose to join them. • Widgets for your home and lock screens, and your hero on your wrist with the watch app.

YOUR DATA ActiveHero reads your steps, workouts, sleep, stairs, standing time and heart rate to power your hero. That data stays on your phone. If you join the leaderboards you are asked first, and only your scores and your hero's name are shared.
