The sun is out, your schedule is clear and your neighbourhood suddenly feels like old news? Turn your surroundings into the most realistic open-world game ever made. These apps will transform your next walk into an epic quest and your daily commute into an adventure you didn’t see coming.

Think you know your city? Look closer. FlashInvaders challenges you to hunt down miniature mosaics hidden across your neighbourhood. Spot one, scan it and score points. The higher you want to climb the ranking, the more carefully you’ll need to look to get the rarest invaders.

Some maps are given to you. This one has to be worked for. MysteryHike tracks every route you walk and every corner you explore, slowly revealing a living map of your world. Keep discovering the city you thought you knew by heart to unlock special rewards. Stumble upon MysteryPlaces along the way and see just how much of your city you’ve been missing.

Why go for a walk when you can go on a quest? Every real step moves your avatar through breathtaking fantasy landscapes. Race Hairyfoot Potter for a casual stroll, keep pace with Jon Snowflake for a real challenge or go toe-to-toe with Mr. Underhill if you want to sweat for it. The trail is calling. Will you answer it?

Rare spawn down the street. Arena two blocks over. Your commute just became a Pokémon hunt. Pokémon GO rewards every step with new encounters and surprises at every corner. The further you walk, the more Pokémon you’ll catch!
