Fantasy Hike 9+

Best walk tracking app!

First, I really like the fact that the story lines at the bottom are able to be re-read,as most people do not walk while looking at their phones. I also really like how the app is made.

One thing to be aware of however, if you are just downloading the app, is the app will not register walking of over 1 mile a day. However, you can either pay a premium membership which gets you unlimited miles, some other avatars and a couple other things, or a one time payment of £4 to get just unlimited miles, which is what I did.

I still think the app is worth 5stars even though you can't do more than a mile without paying, because I think it's important the app developers make a profit, and seeing that it's a free app, I understand why they would want to charge for these kinds of things.

Hello reviewsfornoreason,
Thank you so much for taking the time to review Fantasy Hike. We're very happy to hear you've been enjoying it! Happy hiking and have great luck on your journey.

Almost Perfect!!

I loveee this app!!! I think the one thing that would make it 1000x better for me is if the map was improved. If we could zoom in on it and see in slightly closer detail where we are along the journey + if names of locations were written on the map. Generally just making the map more interesting nothing too crazy but slightly more detail - but so much that it removed the mystery of the walk! Just things like “Rivendell” and “Moriah” written on the map, and the ability to zoom in and see it a bit clearer would be cool. Also I agree with other reviewers that you move extremely quickly thought interesting areas and then very slowly along flat planes - I guess this is more accurate to the story tbf but balancing it out just a bit more or at least having the environment at least change more while walking through the blank plane areas would make it better - rather than just moving very slowly over those parts. These are the main things I’d change!! It would also be really cool if you could see on the route where the challenges are (obviously you’d have to be ahead of them but still). Thanks so much for the app! Love it

Hello josmagfailedds,
Thank you so much for reviewing Fantasy Hike. We are aware of the slow spot and have plans to improve it. Our to-do list is just a bit long at the moment and we're a very small company. Thank you for your thoughtful feedback, we appreciate it! Happy hiking and good luck on your journey.

Love it, but Please tweak this.

I love this app! But this little detail keeps getting to me, and it’s affecting my enjoyment of this journey. I really hope you tweak it for the future.

In some areas, mostly where nothing is happening, it takes 20-30kilos to just move across the screen. At the same time, important areas like the mines or Riverdale take a fraction of that.

Details: Entering the mines at 1285kilos and exiting at 1353, with so much happening! Especially between 1349 and 1353. That was the part I was most excited for, and it was over in one walk for me…

And right after it you spend around 100kilos to walk a tiny distance from one bridge to another; see the 1385kilos point. I remember thinking the app is laggy on one of those days, because I walk for 5-7kilos, and my character didn’t move. (barely noticeable)

A lot of fans will miss the details that go by quickly and think they’re stuck in the same place in at times, which is boring.

Your team is great, and I’m sure you can balance it out more. 🙏🏼

Thank you.
