### 1/5 — What a let down

*2026-08-27*

The game runs great and is a lot of fun but a forced subscription for a low poly game with minimal functions is pretty rough. Should just be an in game shop for more cosmetics. Could easily fund the project. Won’t be playing this again 😪

**Developer response:** Hi Boog Boy - I love the username! I'm sorry about the subscription and appreciate you trying the game. Best of luck with your training!! - Otang

### 4/5 — Top notch

*2026-08-31*

Have been playing the Beta for six months and have enjoyed it. Great concept and content, and it has helped motivate me to get back in shape.

**Developer response:** Thanks very much for the review Aubie!! - Otang

### 5/5 — Fun Adjunct to My Running

*2026-08-30*

I saw this game as it was first being created and was instantly intrigued. Now that I have begun the journey in the beta, I am hooked. Not just by the game itself, but the community and amazing developer attention! I can’t wait to continue the adventure and I’ll tell you…it has gotten me out on more than one extra run already. Let’s go!!!

**Developer response:** Let's gooooo!!! Thank you so much for the review 🙏

### 5/5 — By runners for runners

*2026-08-30*

Been playing the beta for ~4 to 5 months now. For better or worse this game is coded/developed by a small company in Canada. It is not another ‘Step counter’ game, it is focused around running specifically. While you can progress slowly logging walks, you need to run to get the most out of it.  The beta community has had direct interaction with devs that actually listen and that looks as it will continue through the live game. It’s not going to be everyone’s cup of tea but if you are already an active runner, or are interested in becoming one, this game can definitely help increase motivation.   Excited to see the game going live and where it’s headed in the future.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review 🙏🙏

### 5/5 — My 2 Favorite Things

*2026-08-29*

This is an amazing game concept with RPG dungeons and loot that is advanced by real life running workouts! It is such a great motivator to run more frequently and longer. 

I have been a Patreon supporter and early beta tester. The developer has incorporated community feedback at every level of creation making this a game that truly created by and created for the running community. I will continue to be around on this game for a very long time!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the review Toasty! Glad to have you. - Otang

### 5/5 — Old School RPG Fitness

*2026-08-27*

Great motivation to get serious about running again. I’ve logged over 600 miles in the game and can’t wait to keep going. I’m chasing PR’s that I thought were out of reach for my age just because I’m having fun again. Great for beginners and the elite because pace isn’t a factor. The updates never disappoint so I’m excited to see how it keeps growing.

**Developer response:** Thank you for our first iOS review!! Happy training. - Otang
