Your real steps power every expedition. Go outside, walk, and explore a mysterious continent that shouldn't exist. Terra Incognita turns your daily movement into a fitness adventure where every step takes you deeper into the unknown. A research expedition drifted into fog far off course. When it lifted, there was land ahead. On no chart, in no report. The nature is breathtaking but wrong. Plants in geometric patterns. Ruins built with tools no known civilization should have. Now you're here, mapping the impossible. HOW IT WORKS Pick a direction on the map. Go outside. Walk. Your real steps move you across the continent. A short walk reveals nearby terrain. A long hike pushes deep into uncharted territory. No GPS, no routes, no treadmill tracking. Just move however you want. EXPLORE YOUR OWN WORLD Every player discovers a different continent. Your map is yours alone, full of landmarks, secrets, and terrain that no one else will see. Choose your direction based on what you need: head toward the mountains for stone, the jungle for wood, or the ruins for rare samples. BUILD YOUR BASE CAMP Collect wood, stone, food, and biological samples on expeditions. Invest them into 7 buildings across two categories: camp and research. Upgrade your headquarters, unlock new biomes with the Navigation Station, and push further into the unknown. Every step counts twice: once for your expedition, once for your active building upgrade. One walk, double progress. DAILY CHALLENGES Three new goals every day. Walk steps, explore tiles, collect resources. Complete all three and your streak grows. Hit milestones for bonus rewards. FAIR BY DESIGN Free players explore 3 starter biomes with no restrictions. The full version unlocks 5 additional biomes and research buildings. One purchase, permanent access. No subscriptions. No ads. No pay-to-win. FEATURES - Step tracking via your phone's health data, no GPS required - A map that's different for every player - 7 upgradeable buildings in 2 categories - Daily challenges with resource rewards and streak milestones - Discover landmarks, secrets, and new biomes - Chapter-based progression that never gets grindy - Background step sync, progress even when the app is closed - English and German
