What is “Fog of World” and How Does It Work in the MysteryHike App?

By: / Behind the Scenes / Comments Off on What is “Fog of World” and How Does It Work in the MysteryHike App?

In our app, Mystery Hike, we’ve taken an established concept from the gaming world and brought it into real life to inspire you, our users, to explore new places. This concept is called Fog of World, and it completely transforms the way you approach hiking and exploring nature.

The Principle of Fog of World: Discovering New Places Step by Step

Fog of World is a principle you might know from video games. At the start, the map is covered with a kind of “fog” that represents unexplored areas. As the user (or player) moves through the area, the fog gradually clears, revealing the surroundings. This feeling of discovering new places inspired us to create an app that brings this gaming experience directly into your real-world adventures.

In Mystery Hike, every trip is an opportunity to uncover previously unknown places. Our app allows you to gradually reveal the map and track your progress by the percentage of the world you’ve uncovered. The more you discover, the more rewarding your travels become – and at the end of each trip, you can see which new parts of the map you’ve managed to uncover.

Discover Hidden Locations with MysteryHike

MysteryPlaces are interesting spots marked on the map with question marks, waiting to be revealed. As you approach these points, the app automatically updates the map and reveals what each specific location is. It could be a scenic viewpoint, a historical landmark, or a natural attraction.

Each uncovered MysteryPlace earns you points that move you up on the leaderboard among other users. This competitive element adds another dimension to your adventures and ensures that your trips have a real goal and motivation.

Why Did We Choose the Fog of World Concept?

We wanted to create an app that not only encourages you to get outside but also gives you a sense of meaningful progress. With Fog of World, you can see how your map gradually reveals new places. Every trip becomes an opportunity for more discoveries and exploring locations you haven’t yet reached.

By combining this concept with features like MysteryPlaces and the leaderboard, we’ve created an environment where users can compete, share experiences, and inspire each other to further adventures.

Community and Sharing Experiences

One of our key features is the ability to comment on and rate each MysteryPlace. This way, you’re not only discovering interesting places but also sharing them with other users. Together, we’re building a community of people who love nature, adventure, and discovering new corners of the world.
