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.

doesn't count Steps accurately. Connected to Samsung Health, done 5.5k steps, free limit is 3k, MistyWay shows less than 1k. Thanks Nikolai, I checked Connect and it looks like it needed an update/to be re-installed. All fixed now and I've upped my review from 3* to 4* as I'm still trying it out, the trial daily steps are quite low and the subscription is quite a bit. Overall, a nice app that doesn't require me to be glued to the phone.

Friends & Family is one annual plan for four, cheapest per person. All steps still record beyond the 3,000 daily journey-progress cap. Fireflies unlock waiting steps without a subscription, and Premium removes the cap. Thanks for letting me know Health Connect is working now. Nikolai Creator of MistyWay

I liked this app enough to buy the one year premium subscription. But the most recent update added an in-game currency. Would be okay, but now I get asked to follow their social media to get currency and I still have to buy companions with real money. This app is quickly developing in a direction I really hate. I will wait and see where it goes, but I can only imagine it becoming worse from here. Very disappointed. The second star is only earned because I can use the app without signing in.

I think the social prompts are a fair criticism, especially after paying for a year. There are ways to get companions without another purchase, though. The cat is a reward for adding three friends, and the dog for seven. 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.

Friends & Family is the cheapest per person for a group, with four accounts on one annual subscription. The complete journey and story can also be finished for free. Thank you for the thoughtful feedback on the quests and design. Nikolai Creator of MistyWay
