Walk all week. Fight on Sunday. BattleWalkers turns your daily steps into battle power. Every week, the steps you take Monday through Thursday build your attack. Friday through Sunday build your defence. On Sunday, the battle resolves and a winner is crowned. But walking more doesn't guarantee a win. Your opponent's loadout β their weapon, armour, and tactical bonus β can overcome the step gap. So walk as much as you possibly can, because you never know how well-equipped your rival is. How it works: -MonβThu steps fuel your attack; FriβSun steps fuel your defence -Lock in your loadout before the battle β weapon, armour, and a battle bonus -Battle resolves every Sunday 8pm ET -Earn gold from walking and winning. Spend it on new homes, accessories, and cosmetics Challenge your friends Send a rival challenge to anyone and settle it head to head β steps plus strategy decide the winner. Tiers & Ranks Your weekly step average determines your tier β Beginner, Casual, Expert, Pro, or Elite β so you're always matched against opponents at your activity level. Your rank (Wanderer through Immortal) reflects your long-term progress and is earned through gold accumulated over time. The full game is completely free. The only purchases available are optional character unlocks. No paywalls, no energy bars, no ads, no subscription. Just a reason to go for that extra walk.
