Apprehension

A GPS game you play in your local park

Exercise that feels like a game, because it is one.

A hand holds up a handset by a lake in a park. On it, the map shows the player on the lakeshore path, with slime covering the paths around them.

  1. Go to your park

    Any park with paths, near where you live.

  2. Pick a mode

    Six to choose from, on your handset.

  3. Head out

    Walk, jog or ride. The game plays out along the paths.

Your park has become infested with fae folk

An introduction for the newly sighted

Goblins, slime monsters, wraiths and worse have moved into the paths and hedges, but nobody else can see them.

This is your call to get active outside and reclaim the land for humankind. Take your handset, pick a mode and head for the nearest green.

Plate I. Fae folk in their natural habitat, the common park path.

Get in touch

At any pace

Walk it, jog it or ride it: every mode plays at your pace

All game modes can be played at any pace, from a slow walk and a moderate jog to a fast run or a furious ride. Dynamic modes will balance themselves against your speed and keep things fun but engaging, and timed modes will let you select your own pace.
