Have a higher purpose in all your rides, runs, hikes or any other activities. Make them exciting by collecting squadrats everywhere you go. You don't need exotic travels. With Squadrats you'll discover mysterious places close to your home. Squadrats are squarish items on the map. Your mission is to collect them. And connect them to build your empire. If you don't have much time, chase squadratinhos instead. They are much smaller, much faster to get, but just as satisfying. If you like order, you'll love the übersquadrat. It's a giant squadrat that will give you a strong kick when you build one. Fun fact: 47 of the top 100 cyclists in the Tour de France use Squadrats. But you don't need to be a pro to enjoy them. Happy squadratting! Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdevula/
