I've just asked this over on Reddit, and it just occurred to me that this might be a place to ask too.

 

I like that Fitbit have made exercise more playful through graphs and competition with others and yourself-in-the-past, but I want it to be MORE gamey. Like, "do 200 more steps to play another round of line-up-the-candy" or "crossword clue available in 200 steps" or "buy a spangly collar for your tamagotchi with 500 steps" or "rescue the princess in the castle! It's 2km away and the piano will fall on her head in x minutes".

 

Does anyone know of anything like this, either already made or being made right now?

@Cassian It looks like there is another member that shares your good idea! Smiley Very Happy @gravityhomer Steps as currency in a game idea has been submitted through the Feature Requests. You can go there and vote for the idea as well.

 

Perhaps this post can help, it was the 30 Days of Summer Fit and it shares cool stuff about workouts to try, tips on getting (and staying!) healthy, and more! I apologize for the late response and I give you a warm welcome to Fitbit Community.

I would also send a message to the  creaters of the games you are interested in, since they are the ones that would have to set it up.

Hey! I love your ideas and hope that an app does get developed in the mere future like you said... in the meantime there is a game currently available on the app store or google play store. Heres the link ... so you can find more about it.
