I enjoyed making the progress bars move even though I wasn’t really at any of these places in person. I didn’t make it through many of the locations before it went paid but more than enough to get the idea. The art and design are nicely done.

Not the Right App for a Subscription

After seeing the new update locking even more features behind a subscription, I’m done. This app was fun and I was fine paying $5 to unlock a pack one at a time. This is not the type of all that should be a subscription. I understand developers need to make money, but this is a perfect example of an app where in-app purchases make sense. The fact that things that were previously free or unlockable with a one-time purchase are now subscription only seeks to burn the user base which ironically will result in lost revenue.

This app used to be great, but moving core features behind a subscription was the wrong choice. Taking away unlockables that were previously available and replacing them with an expensive paywall feels unfair. A subscription should add value, like extra cosmetics, exclusive perks, or convenience, not block the entire experience. Expecting users to pay weekly just to access basic content isn’t a service, it’s locking away what made the app enjoyable in the first place.

I never leave reviews, but this app is really something. Simple yet rewarding. You really want to walk in real life to get your rewards. It would be nice to also offer real life awards (with a cost) to show off. 🙂.
