Original Summary

Hi everyone, I’ve been working on an app called RLQuest , and I’d really appreciate some honest feedback from people outside my own bubble. The basic idea is simple: What if real life worked a little more like a video game? Instead of completing quests on a screen, RLQuest gives you real-world quests and challenges that you actually have to complete outside or in everyday life. You earn XP, levels, achievements, streaks and rewards by completing them. One of the main mechanics is exploration. As you move around, you uncover a persistent map made of tiles that are roughly 350 metres wide . Every new area you discover stays uncovered permanently, so over time you can actually see where you’ve explored. There’s also a Place Book . RLQuest currently has a database of more than 1.5 million real-world places across Europe and North America , including things like viewpoints, castles, lighthouses, historic towers, old city gates and many other types of locations. When you discover a new type of place, it gets added to your collection. There are currently more than 2,700 quests . Some are very simple: Walk somewhere you haven’t been before Be outside at a certain time of day Discover new map tiles Photograph something specific Visit a certain type of place Complete a walking or exploration challenge Depending on the quest, completion can be checked using things like your recorded route, step count, newly discovered tiles, a photo or the time of day. There’s also an Adventures feature. You tell the app how much time you have, what kind of outing you want and roughly how far you want to go, and RLQuest builds an adventure based on what’s around you. So instead of wondering “What could I do today?” , you can basically let the app decide. There are also currently 213 achievements across 69 achievement series , plus: XP and levels Daily quests Streaks Inventory items Place collection Map exploration Weekly statistics Generated Adventures Depending on your plan and how much time you have available, you can get roughly 3–10 quests per day . The goal isn’t really to build another fitness app. It’s more about making people curious enough to go somewhere, discover something or do something they normally wouldn’t. The app is currently available in Europe and North America and supports English and German . I’m especially interested in feedback on: Does the concept make sense immediately? Which part of the app looks most interesting to you? Does the map/exploration system make you want to uncover more? Do XP, achievements and collections add motivation, or does it feel like too much gamification? Would you actually use the Adventures feature? Does the quest verification make the challenges feel more meaningful? What would make you come back regularly? Is there anything you would remove or simplify? What kind of quests would you personally want to see? Please feel free to be critical. I’m much more interested in hearing what doesn’t work than getting polite compliment
