About this game

Compete for zones with friends and strangers in real life!

In TURF there are lots of ZONES spread out around the world. You compete for these zones against others in order to play the game.

By going to a zone and standing within its boundaries, you will TAKE the zone from the owner and claim ownership. This will turn the zone green and give you income in the form of points.

Watch your competitors every move LIVE on the game map and choose your strategy accordingly.

Owning more zones will provide you with a higher income, while losing a zone to a competitor will reduce your income. There are three levels of top-lists (region/country/world) where you can see your current ranking.

The game is played in ROUNDS. Every round is one month long and ends on a sunday close to the start of a new month. At the end of a round, every zone is reset and points collected are zeroed in order to allow for a new start. Rewards are given to the best players, which are kept forever.

The game also includes events, medals, rankings and lots of statistical data to measure your performance and keep track of your adventures.

Start turfing now! Move those legs and let the adrenaline flow!

Ratings and reviews

Great concept to get the kids interested in being outdoors/map reading etc but the app is really fussy about accuracy of the GPS position (spent 30 minutes on a rugby pitch hoping the little man icon would catch up with my true position). Worse than that it seems to require mobile data to actually take a zone. Walked two miles but I couldn't 'take' the zone because mobile reception wasn't good enough. Frustrating! However it did get my son walking the two miles so worth a try.

This is such a superb app and game. If you are at risk of being an addict then this is such a wonderful way to placate your addiction issues,lol. The fitness element is good if you walk or cycle to the zones, my competitive issues, (second place is first of the losers) is satiated by taking other people's zones and Turf is such a good way to see a new town or city. If I am going to another place in the UK I suss out the zones on the route and then plan at least 1 or 2 days to go turfing.❤

Great fun game/sport for keeping active and exploring your local area, or wherever you happen to be. Addictive once you get into it. It must be said that the user interface is not overly intuitive, so its worth reading the FAQ, forums, and talking to other Turf players. There are some great tools for analysis or your turfing, or planning your turf sessions. However many of these are actually third party sites. Odd, yes, but ok considering Turf is available free (unless you opt to support).
