Prado Traveler

This is exactly the sort of game I've been looking for. It doesn't demand too much of your time, but still has enough interest and content to keep you checking in and motivated to get a few more steps in than you would be otherwise. The worst thing I can say about the game after a few weeks is that sometimes it takes a while to load, but some recent updates have made that less frequent.

The concept is incredibly good. Love that group play is relatively straightforward and there is low commitment. Enough things to do without it feeling micromanagey. The game is a bit slow and buggy (legit could be my phone), but the entertainment here is high. It’s also doing what it’s men’s to do: making exercise fun. I’m running an extra mile or two a day just for this game.

Just a few issues so far, step refresh pull down doesn’t always seem to work. I also just encountered a bug where after a battle encounter the app displayed I took 45 damage, however the value seems to have registered twice as I was missing 90 hp. Other than these things the game is a great motivation to get up more.

So far the structure of the game seems sound. Challenging progression, and I love the encouragement to move! I wish there was some internet resource to learn more about the game, but that is a lot of the intrigue!

Literally can’t play the game because it locks you out after midnight. I love being treated like a child.

I’ve only been playing a couple of days, but so far the game is a blast. Nice little bit of motivation to get moving. Here’s hoping the future monetization doesn’t ruin the experience. I’d gladly pay one flat fee to keep playing.

Prado Traveler is an RPG that fits a busy life and encourages you to be more active. I look forward to going on runs knowing that I will be able to complete more encounters afterwards. And I try and walk more throughout the day as well. I love it!

Encourages you to get your steps in. It really shines when in a party to do your part. It doesn’t pressure you to constantly log in, either. Check out the art for the game. It’s a definite aesthetic that suits it perfectly.

I did not expect a ton from a game with so few reviews but it highly surpassed my expectations. RPG component reminds me of old school Diablo where you explore the map, collect loot, buy and sell in town, etc. The game offers 3 character classes - a magician, a thief and a warrior. You get to equip them in armor, jewelry and weapons. As health and mana get low, you use some of the loot you collect to brew spells or cook meals. There is a cooking and alchemy levels in addition to your overall character level. The game requires maybe 5-10 minutes a day as progress depends precisely on how many steps you have taken so you do have to give it permission to gather your activity data from your watch or another smart step counter. I love that. There’s the ability to party up with up to three other players. So the advancement can speed up in parties of 4. Just like with other RPG‘s, the thrill of finding something unique is exciting and that’s why the game is holding my attention. I also love the immaculate pictures of magical items and other loot. Seems very well done and not buggy at all!

Can’t be played without logging in to either your Apple account (not just Game Center) or a google account. I don’t use either. If a future update fixes this, I’ll change my review.
