The city is yours to explore.
Stepwars is a walking and territory exploration game for iPhone. Explore your neighbourhood cell by cell, then build your camp with the loot from validated outings.
Your neighbourhood, cell by cell.
The city is divided into hexagonal cells. During an outing, GPS measures your movement: ten validated metres inside a cell, and it comes under your banner.
Metres add up across outings. Street by street, your territory grows, and the map remembers each capture.

Every walk brings home some loot.
Back home, check your results: validated metres, experience and coins for your camp. Completing a mission adds another 30 XP.
A badge joins your collection after your first outing, and the next level is already within reach.

Your questions before getting started
Is Stepwars a step counter?
Stepwars is a walking game for iPhone. It uses GPS movement validated during an outing started in the app to develop a map, an explorer and a camp. It does not automatically count every step throughout the day.
How can I access Stepwars on iPhone?
This website introduces the game and lets you create an account. Public App Store availability has not been announced here. Contact support to check current access to the iOS app; signing in to the website does not start GPS tracking. These English pages do not confirm English-language app or support availability.
What is the planned price of Stepwars?
The planned launch offer is €4.99 per month or €39.99 per year, with the same features. Eligible new subscribers receive a 3-day trial after confirming a subscription. It renews automatically at the selected price unless cancelled. Production purchase activation is still being verified. These are planned euro prices, not confirmed prices for every country.
Can I progress without other players nearby?
Yes. Personal goals, distance missions, levels and your camp let you progress on your own. Clans, raids and multiplayer competitions are not part of this version. Tracking depends on the map, permissions and GPS quality.
