Just want to enjoy the game. 10000 steps gets you around 10 vita which lets you play one map. In the later levels 10 isn’t even enough for a full map and some maps connect. ### 4/5 — Love the game, just one issue *2026-08-13, version 8.0.9* I’ve vastly enjoyed this game even as someone with a walking disability, I still have fun trying to earn my marks so I can keep playing. I do have one issue, although quantity is small I’ve found it to be a major problem. I have a friend that has major arachnophobia, like he’ll freeze uk entirely from seeing even a glimpse of a picture of a spider, and I noticed I couldn’t find an arachnophobia setting anywhere, if the developers could adjust so that people with arachnophobia can play the game, I’m sure there would be much more engagement and enjoyment from the consumer end. Please keep that in mind, otherwise an amazing game!! ### 3/5 — Neuer patch bringt Absturz *2026-08-06* Ich spiele Prado seit einem Jahr und bin begeistert….bis zum letzten Patch (8.09)! Ich lade und danach kommt die Meldung, ich solle das Spiel neu starten. Wie ??? Selbst deinstallieren und neu installieren funktioniert nicht😤 Vorschläge? Danach gerne wieder 5 Sterne Mit freundlichen Grüßen **Developer response:** Can you please email us at dylan@pradotraveler.com with more details? We would like to get this fixed. ### 3/5 — Ok *2026-07-27, version 8.0.9* It’s ok. The balancing is somewhat laughable when a lower level enemy with half my health beats me after the rest of the deck is aced. But eh. Had better, had worse. ### 5/5 — Praise and ideas *2026-07-22* I move alot already, but this very nice add free game motivated me and some friends to move alot more! Id love to see: - Simple animations for battle - Minigame w/o steps, to try builds or gain minimal exp - Maybe a monthly achievement to unlock sub benefits (locked classes) - Random encounter while walking through push notification wich are then time capped - Builds/stats (as sub benefit?) that boost the random encounter rate - Track loot you need to craft - crafting que wich triggers once you have the loot ### 5/5 — Love this *2026-07-19, version 8.0.9* Makes me want to run more to level lol. Silly but fun and worth a download for any rpg fans that walk or run ### 5/5 — Deep and detailed game *2026-07-17, version 8.0.9* This game is one of the most fun games I’ve played all year. I’m not some lame mobile gamer, I love Resident Evil, I love Halo, I play NBA 2k. This game has wonderfully gamified walking and steps. It has a very deep crafting system (esp for a mobile game) to create your character. I’ve been playing for 3 weeks now and I’m losing weight. The game challenges you to put your steps in to play. I plan on getting a subscription to it when I can, as this game is ad free and I’d like to keep it this way. I’m in a party with a crew on discord. We are having a good time with it! ### 5/5 — Ótimo game *2026-07-15* Não passei do 25lvl ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-07-13, version 8.0.9* Honestly compared to games like Pokémon go and monster hunter go, this game actively promotes walking and makes you want to walk further. It’s due to your energy/stamina being tied into your walking. If you want to have a bunch of energy you have to earn it! My only gripe is I love the art style of the characters so much I’m disappointed the battles are not animated in the same style. They are still fun but I wanna see my character swing his weapon! Or the ability to change my stance/pose while I’m in town. All that said it’s a great game that encourages healthy activity and is worth a try!!! ### 5/5 — Game Mechanics *2026-07-12, version 8.0.9* I honestly love the whole concept of the game, I just wish I could do more in the "Dungeons" I feel like Vita gets in the way of the game. I would much rather the steps count correspond with the distance travel between villages and adventure. For example take 1000 steps to reach pebble beach as supposed to take 800 steps to gain one vita to do one task. Lol I could also just be the only one with this opinion and everyone else loves the way it is. ### 5/5 — Fun *2026-07-10, version 8.0.9* Cool and fun game. Gets me motivated to walk ### 5/5 — So much fun! *2026-07-09, version 8.0.9* You get energy based on the number of steps you’ve done and then use that to go on adventures. The game has a surprising amount of depth with classes and builds. It’s completely free as of writing to play 4 out of 6 classes. The devs are active and communicate daily on their Discord and roll out major updates with new seasons. You can play as little or as much as you want! ### 5/5 — Great buttt.... *2026-07-03, version 8.0.9* NEEDS a "BUY ALL" button, or multiple, in the shops. Very TEDIOUS as is currently, needing to constantly push the plus button for every single item every single time and then buy all. Plus, it is very easy to be trying to push the "more/+" button and accidentally touch next to it instead and go out of the screen, prompting a redo. ### 5/5 — On its way to awesome *2026-06-30, version 8.0.9* Pretty impressed so far and a super fun way to help stay fit and play and work with friends while doing so! Could use a few tweaks here and there and the Ui design needs some love but this could be a special game. ### 5/5 — Tolles Spiel *2026-06-27* Man kann es problemlos Fortschritte erzielen, ohne einen Cent zu investieren. Es verfügt über keine pay to win Elemente und animiert dazu, mehr rauszugehen und Schritte zu sammeln. Man kann sich mit Freunden zusammenschließen und sich so nochmal gegenseitig motivieren. Einzigartiges Spielkonzept! ### 5/5 — Оч хорошо *2026-06-26* Отличная игра . ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — hire an artist *2026-08-26, version 9.0.0* ai slopperino baby ### 1/5 — Just okay *2026-08-22, version 9.0.0* First few days are okay until you hit end game. After that it’s just a horrible looong grind of the same areas over and over in hopes of small gains on gear and a very small chance at unique items. Pvp is boring…you just sign up wait hours, sometimes more than 4 hours, and learn if you win the match or not with your party. ### 1/5 — Idk what to do *2026-08-04, version 8.0.9* Idk how to do anything ### 1/5 — Outrageous monthly membership payment *2026-07-24, version 8.0.9* $4,752 a month for a membership to play as a bard and blood knight and get a few other bonuses what the actual hell who as the money to do that in the economy y’all need to stop taking drugs or whatever y’all are smoking!!!!!! ### 1/5 — HATE the update *2026-06-04, version 8.0.7* Way to much on the screen… you literally put everything on the main screen… SO busy… and made it harder to even navigate… waste of space to have the invite spot on the main screen when I game solo… I miss the simple and more effective… I wonder when the micro-transactions will start happening. All the sads here. AND, now, my steps are not recorded!!! I still hate the cheaters with 2million steps. Meh- might as well back to my FatBit. ### 1/5 — Game is pretty bad *2026-06-01, version 8.0.5* for months ive been stuck a level 5 bunnies, cant beat any adventure but the beginning four, so if you want a game where you can only do the same dumb things over and over again this might be for you, but there has to be better step counting games out there 0/10 ### 1/5 — HATE the update *2026-05-22, version 8.0.0* Way to much on the screen… you literally put everything on the main screen… SO busy… and made it harder to even navigate… waste of space to have the invite spot on the main screen when I game solo… I miss the simple and more effective… I wonder when the micro-transactions will start happening. All the sads here. ### 1/5 — Cards are never centered. *2026-05-12, version 7.0.8* The cards are never centered, I can only see part of the sides, and I’m getting tired of dragging it center with my finger, and when I let go it goes back to the sides. L User Interface so far. ### 1/5 — Unplayable game *2026-05-07* Dont even try this waste of time game. You literally be like - open app, see 0 vita, ok, close+negative emotion. ### 1/5 — AI is no replacement for real art *2026-04-30, version 7.0.8* It seems really fun and like an insanely clever and interesting premise, my sister and her husband love it and I’d like to be a part of it but I refuse with nearly every graphic being AI-generated. I get that artists are expensive (for good reason) but there are so many free assets you could use instead. If you ever return the soul to the art, let me know and I will happily be a part of this. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-08-29, version 9.0.0* This game give you that extra push to take those extra steps and the gameplay give you enough adventure to keep on coming back. Well done ### 5/5 — Awesome game *2026-08-21, version 9.0.0* Makes you want to walk more. Very cool and in depth game but once in a while bugs out when trying to sell things. Love it and addicting. Wish you can play more classes though without a subscription ### 5/5 — Diamond in a stack of coal! *2026-08-21, version 8.0.9* This game is so freaking fun especially with friends! The vita aspect could be less steps but either way I have had the best time!! 10/10 have already recommended it to everyone I know! ### 5/5 — You collect steps for hours just to play for less than 1 *2026-08-14* Originally gave this gave this game 1 star because I was tired of collecting steps for literal hours just to play for 5 mins. The devs then recommended teaming up as the steps are collective and yes I got more vita to be able to actually play but then the teaming up makes you spend more vita so I was right back where I started. More monsters too and if your party members can’t handle, they die then drag you down when their remaining monsters gang up on you. I’m enjoying the hell out of this game but the problem is I can’t play enough. I can’t even play this game for an hour after collecting the max vita (playing currency). Game is very fun to me, loot game, simple auto combat, crafting but still a very simple game. Even so having fun, just frustrating not to be able to play more than an hour. **Developer response:** If you'd like to progress faster I highly recommend joining a party. You can find a good one on our Discord server. You will essentially 3x your pace with a full party, as everyone's steps can be used to resolve cards. ### 5/5 — Best Step RPG *2026-08-13, version 8.0.9* I very quickly got addicted to this app. It hits just the right spot where it motivates me to walk IRL to get energy (VITA) in game to go on adventures. It does seem like the game is still maybe on the earlier side of release, but can’t wait for more. ### 5/5 — Einfach f2p *2026-08-09* Bestes Spiel ### 5/5 — Fun *2026-08-06, version 8.0.9* Been playing for about a month now and I really like this app. It has gotten me to walk an extra 1000+ steps just to finish an adventure. The only thing I wish they did was 1 time purchases for the memberships and not just subscriptions. ### 5/5 — ИГРА ОЧЕНЬ КРУТАЯ *2026-08-01* 1. Очень нужен мировой чат 2. Если делаешь 2 персонажа то сделайте общее хранилище для них. Это будет очень удобно. Просто общее хранилище на аккаунт на сервере 3. Ждём гильдии) 4. Не могу на сайте войти через Эппл почту. Хочу купить пропуск, а не даёт это сделать 6. Сделайте общий город с рынком где можно будет продавать предметы другим игрокам 7. Хочется больше лутбоксов с кастомизацией, это будет доп донат вам. 8. Спасибо вам огромное за игру!!!! ### 5/5 — 2 vita🫠 *2026-07-30* Уважаемые разработчики, ваша игра - прекрасна, однако.. мы хотели поиграть с братом и подругой и обнаружили что увеличивается затрата виты и это боль😢 хочется играть больше, проходить больше, возникают мысли о подписке даже, но расходовать 2 виты за любое действие это ппц. Мы не так давно играем и, вероятно, не до конца понимаем необходимости данной механики, но сейчас вынужденно не играем все вместе и брат прокачивается отдельно только по данной причине. Может получится пересмотреть данную условность и, допустим, оставить использование 2 вит (или может даже 3) на бои с боссами, а все остальные действия оставить также по 1?😅 **Developer response:** I suggest you bump up to a party of size 4. Monster encounters will still cost 2 VITA, but all other cards (rest, skill checks) still cost 1, so you will progress very quickly. ### 5/5 — Schönes Spiel *2026-07-28* Wenn ihr ein startitem wollt mein f Code ist SZKXnq.
