About this app

Turn every step into an adventure with MistyWay — the walking quest game that transforms your daily movement into an epic fantasy journey. Whether you commute on foot, stroll with your dog, or hike mountain trails, each stride brings you closer to your destination.

WALK. EXPLORE. DISCOVER.
MistyWay combines a smart step counter with an immersive fantasy world. Every move reveals new paths through enchanted forests, ancient ruins, and misty valleys. Your real-world journey unlocks the map, discovers hidden locations, and pushes back the fog one stride at a time. Watch your character progress through a hand-crafted parallax world that comes alive as you move — like a walking adventure game you play with your feet.

This app has a lot of potential. The free plan is limited to 3k steps, so trial only. I paid for a one year subscription to support the devs, but it's not really worth it on its own merits... yet. It's an improvement in value over the "The Conquerer" LoTR trail, but I'd recommend the less polished but more feature-rich "Prado Traveller" for folks who find the quests and character-building interesting. The strengths of this app are its polish, art and writing - but it lacks content and depth

Ethel, thank you for supporting MistyWay. The full story is free, with 3,000 steps a day advancing the journey. All steps are recorded. Fireflies unlock waiting steps, and Premium removes the cap. What would make quests or character building more rewarding for you? Nikolai Creator of MistyWay

Excellent app, graphics are great, getting to compete with friends is awesome. Only complaint is the 3k limit placed on the free version of the app. And that the unlimited version is so expensive. My entire family is using the app, so we would need to pay $200 a year ($50 per person) for unlimited access. Just not feasible for any app, let alone a social pedometer with graphics.

Nicholas, a whole family on one app is exactly the case Friends & Family covers, one yearly subscription with four seats, you plus three, far cheaper than four separate plans. Check the purchase screen for the current price, and the 3k cap stays lifted for everyone on it. Nikolai Creator of MistyWay

I really like the app. I appreciate the graphics and the simplicity of it. I like how you can complete different quests along your journey. As much as I like the app, I think the subscription is too expensive for what you're getting. If you're not subscribed it still counts all your steps, but only a maximum of 3000 get counted towards your journey. You also only get to pick a male or female hobbit if you're not subscribed. Overall good app but over priced.

Sean, fair points. On price, Friends & Family is one yearly subscription with four seats, the cheapest per person. Above the 3,000 a day, waiting steps also unlock with fireflies you earn in the game, no subscription needed. Two free characters is the free tier, Premium opens all 16. Nikolai Creator of MistyWay
