About
Byron is a word game you have to walk to.
Letters appear on the map around you, and they stay where they are. Walk to one and it's yours.
Your satchel holds fourteen letters and no more, so every letter you pick up means leaving another one behind.
Once a day there's a word, the same word for everybody, and you spend your letters filling it in. Finish sooner and you score more and climb the board.
Walking pays on its own as well. Every 7,000 steps you take in a day earns a letter, and every 10,000 earns a blank that fills any gap in the word. Steps are read from Apple Health.
PLAY WITH FRIENDS
Make a group and race just your friends on the daily word. Or start a game of Bestest Fastest: a round of 5 to 20 minutes where everyone collects letters at once. You get one go at a word, and it's worth more the earlier you lock it in.
APPLE WATCH
Start a walk on your watch and leave your phone in your pocket. Your wrist taps when you pass a letter. Raise it to see the letter, and pinch to keep it. Each walk is saved to Apple Health as a walking workout.
Free to play. No ads, no energy bars, and nothing for sale that helps you win.
Byron is named after a chocolate Labrador with strong opinions about the route.
