Chase Run
Read full descriptionHide full description
Do you want to run but keep putting it off? Do your usual runs feel boring? Chase Run is an immersive running app that adds a virtual chase to your GPS running records. While running, it measures your actual distance traveled and current pace, calculating the real-time distance from a pursuer based on your set target pace. If your speed drops, the pursuer gets closer; if you pick up your pace again, you can widen the gap. The on-screen character, distance-responsive footsteps, and voice guidance transform an ordinary route into a thrilling survival run. Run with focus for a set time, or run freely for as long as you want without a time limit. [Key Features] • GPS-Based Running Records Records your actual distance traveled, elapsed time, and current pace while running. After your run, you can see your average pace, total distance, and chase records at a glance. • Real-time Pursuit Based on Target Pace Compares your set target pace with your actual speed to calculate the virtual pursuer's distance. Maintain your pace to keep a safe distance; if your speed drops, the pursuer gets closer. • Immersive Running Starts Instantly Without Warm-up Once GPS connection is complete, the chase begins immediately. Focus on your run from the moment you're ready. • Flexible Running Time Settings Run without a time limit until you manually stop, or enter your desired running time from 1 minute to 23 hours 59 minutes. Set it to match your plan, from short, intense workouts to long-distance challenges. • Step-by-Step Running Setup Select running time, target pace, workout difficulty, and fear intensity one step at a time. Complex settings aren't cluttered on a single screen, allowing you to focus on each necessary item before starting. • Three Workout Difficulties Choose a difficulty level that matches your current fitness and experience: Beginner, Normal, or Hard. Higher difficulty increases the pursuer's pressure, allowing you to challenge yourself with more intense workouts. • Three Fear Intensities Choose your desired level of immersion: Low, Medium, or High. The fear intensity changes the tension of footsteps and chase effects. • Footsteps Matched to Character Movement Footsteps play in sync with the left and right foot landing frames of the running character. The chase situation and character movement are naturally linked, allowing for deeper immersion in your run. • Voice Distance Guidance Even without constantly looking at the screen while running, you can hear changes in distance from the pursuer via voice. Voice guidance and footsteps can be muted simultaneously in settings. • 50 Running Quests Challenge yourself with various quests like First Run, Cumulative Distance, Cumulative Time, Distance Run in One Go, Survival Completion, S-Rank, Target Pace, and more. Earn badges and XP from completed quests to increase your survival level. • Distance-Based Running Activity Calendar View your runs from the past year on a date-by-date activity graph. The longer the distance run in a day, the darker the red. Select a date to see detailed records of that day's total distance, workout time, and individual runs. [Important Safety Information] Chase Run does not monitor your surroundings during outdoor activities. Use it in safe parks, sports fields, or familiar routes with no vehicle traffic. Do not constantly look at the screen while running; always be aware of pedestrians, bicycles, vehicles, and road conditions around you. Immediately pause at crosswalks or dangerous sections and ensure your safety first. Location permission is required for GPS-based distance and pace recording. Running records and settings are saved on your device. Today, run to escape. Maintain your target pace, widen the gap from the pursuer, and complete your own survival record.
