Questions people ask

Lorewalk is a daily expedition game about real places. Every day it opens on one place on Earth, the same for everyone. You meet five short encounters about that place, take one ranked attempt, and keep the day in your Library.

Playing the daily expedition is free, with no ads. A Pass for recovering missed days and playing extra days is planned as the only purchase.

Three to five minutes. Five encounters, then a short return.

No. Each day has one ranked attempt. That keeps the leaderboard honest and the day meaningful.

Missed days are listed in your Library. Recovering them is part of the planned Pass. Recovered days fill your satchel but never count for streaks or for that day's leaderboard.

From a curated list of real places across every continent and climate, chosen for variety: harbour towns, deserts, high mountains, islands, forests, cities, the Arctic.

The encounters are composed with the help of AI from a brief for each place, then checked by an independent, web-grounded review before a day goes live. Days that fail the review are rewritten. Content about living people is limited to public roles and settled facts.

We work hard on accuracy and review every day before it goes live, but Lorewalk is a game, not a reference work. Check anything you intend to rely on.

The tone is warm and for all ages. There is no gore or graphic violence, and history is told plainly with care. The app is not directed at children under 13 and collects no personal information beyond an anonymous identifier and the name you give your Wayfarer.

An anonymous identifier, the name and look of your Wayfarer, and your play results. No location, no contacts, no ads, no tracking. See the privacy policy.

iPhone and Android, and a browser version at lorewalk.app/play. The store versions are coming soon.
