Your neighborhood is now a block world. StepCraft Go turns every real walk into a game. The streets, buildings, parks and rivers around you are rebuilt in charming voxel blocks from real map data — and your character moves when your body does. WALK YOUR REAL WORLD Step outside and watch your own streets stream in around you, block by block. Every place you know is here: your street, your park, your whole city — reimagined as a living voxel world. YOUR STEPS ARE YOUR LIFE Every real step becomes health. Walk more, live longer, explore further. Steps you take while the app is closed still count when you return — a real walk always pays. CREATURES ROAM YOUR STREETS Pigs, foxes, wolves, bunnies, zombies, skeletons and more wander the world around you. Swat them to earn XP and coins, and keep an eye out for the rare iridium creatures crowned with a violet star — the 1-in-20 prize. COLLECT, UNLOCK, DRESS UP Golden coins line the roadsides — walk past to scoop them up. Spend them on outfits, swords, new creatures and whole new biomes: desert dunes, mushroom forests, frozen snowfields. Defeat 100 of a species to unlock its costume, and hunt iridium rarities to earn the prestige iridium outfits with a floating star of your own. GO ANYWHERE Preview any place on Earth: type an address or landmark and the world rebuilds itself there. Walk the blocks of Paris from your couch — then step outside and come home to your real streets. PRECISE BY DESIGN Movement is driven by your real steps and motion, with GPS keeping you anchored to the map. Optional Camera Boost adds augmented-reality motion tracking for ultra-precise movement — nothing is ever recorded or stored. NO ACCOUNTS, NO FUSS No sign-up, no login. Your world and progress live on your device. Lace up, step outside, and watch your world turn to blocks.

About

StepQuest

Your hero is only alive while you keep walking. StepQuest exists to make a daily walking habit something you actually keep. Not with another streak badge or a reminder you learn to ignore, but by turning your step count into a roguelite RPG where a character's survival is the thing at stake. -= How It Works =- You pick a daily step goal, and it locks in for the whole adventure, so you set your own difficulty. Every day you hit it, your character earns XP and levels up. Every day you miss, you lose a heart. Run out of hearts and the run is over. Steps come straight from Apple Health, so there is nothing to log by hand. You walk, the game keeps score. -= Missing a Day Is Survivable, Not Free =- Six days in a row earns a rest day, and your next miss is forgiven automatically. A full seven day streak regenerates a heart. Blue hearts, earned only from the hardest quests, absorb a missed day as a last resort. Use all of it and a run can last months. Ignore it and five bad days end everything. -= Death Is Not a Reset =- When the last heart goes, your level resets, but your gold and your avatar collection are permanent. You cash out gold based on how long you survived, spend it on cosmetics, and start the next run with everything you have collected. A bad run costs you progress, never your collection. -= Your Steps Are the Currency =- More than 140 avatars across five styles: standard, casual, edgy, fantasy, and cyberpunk. Every one of them is priced in gold, and walking is what earns it. The rarest take real distance to reach, so your character ends up wearing the ground you covered. -= Quests Worth Chasing =- Daily, weekly, monthly and legendary quests. A perfect month. Half a million steps in a single run. A hundred consecutive days. -= On Your Wrist and Home Screen =- An Apple Watch app, a Watch complication, Home Screen widgets and Lock Screen widgets keep today's steps and your remaining hearts one glance away, so you always know how close the day is to costing you a heart. Raise your wrist or glance at a locked phone, no need to open the app. No accounts. No sign up. Just your steps. Disclaimer: StepQuest is free to play and shows ads. Optional in-app support tiers grant bonus gold and remove ads. Nothing you can buy affects your hearts, your step goal, or your progress.
