Wanderlings is a cozy step-tracking game in which you raise a virtual pet. Every step you take in real life helps you care for your companion. Think Tamagotchi meets a pedometer. Four pets to adopt: gentle Mochi, mischievous Pixel, cheerful Sprout, bold Ember. This app connects to Apple Health for accessing steps data, so use whichever fitness device you prefer to log steps. No account required to play. No ads, no subscriptions. Social features are totally optional if you prefer a solo experience. This is a solo dev project by me (Jon). Hope you enjoy!
