Tactical Briefing
Three steps to total neighborhood domination.
01. Scout
Go for a run to reveal the Fog of War. Every step uncovers new potential territory.
02. Claim
Encircle an area completely to capture it for yourself. The bigger the loop, the bigger the reward.
03. Defend
Territories never disappear. They stay yours unless captured by others. Defend what you conquer!
* Strategic tip: Start with small loops to build your base.

Field Reports
"Just secured the park perimeter. Another runner tried to cut off my loop, but I sprinted the last 500m to close the circle. This game makes cardio actually intense."
"My morning jog used to be boring. Now I'm planning routes to maximize AP gain. The 'Fog of War' mechanic is genius - I found streets I didn't know existed."
"Finally a fitness app that isn't just charts. Defending my territory from my neighbor has become a weekly ritual. King of the hill!"
What is Motera?
Motera is a free running app for iOS that turns every run into a strategy game. When you run a closed loop around any area, you capture that territory on a real-world map. Other runners can take your territory by running through it, creating real competition. The bigger your loop, the more points and land you claim.
Unlike traditional running trackers like Strava or Nike Run Club, Motera adds a game layer on top of full GPS tracking. You get all the stats you need (distance, pace, splits, elevation, calories, route mapping) plus territory capture, XP, leveling, and leaderboards. A Fog of War mechanic hides streets you have never visited, turning every run into an exploration mission.
Motera is built for runners who get bored of the same routes and want purpose, competition, and fun in every run. It works great alongside other apps since it runs in the background. Available free on the App Store.
