A journey built in layers
Learn first. Commit when ready.
Every player starts in Initiation. The first kilometres teach the core loop before Expert transforms how Energy, durability and earning work.
Merit and Challenge wait beyond that point. Their attributes can already be developed, allowing players to prepare for Worlds whose full rules are still concealed.
Initiation
Build your foundations
Initiation is the starting World: a clear environment for learning movement, Cadence earning, levelling and shoe maintenance.
25 km unlocks the Apprentice step and the right to Forge. 50 km opens the path to Expert, provided the player owns a regular Shoe.
The decisive threshold
Expert changes the economy of every run
Entering Expert is voluntary and permanent. The player sees the consequences before confirming the transition.
Maintain the Shoe
- World coefficient ×1.10
- Energy recovers automatically
- Durability decreases while running
- Cadence mode only
→
Fuel the journey
- World coefficient ×1.45
- Energy comes from burned Shoes
- Durability no longer decreases
- Cadence and Fortune modes
A Shoe carrying durability damage from Initiation must be fully repaired before it can be used in Expert. Entering the new World does not erase unfinished maintenance.
Expert
Preparation becomes strategy
Expert removes free Energy fuel. Players build an Energy Vault by consuming Shoes, while the daily spend limit refills across the same four UTC slots.
The higher earning coefficient rewards that commitment. Fortune mode, four Sport Bag slots and Shoe recycling also become available.
Merit
Some journeys are remembered
Merit will give purpose to every Merit point prepared along the way. Beyond its gates, individual effort may connect to something much larger than a single run.
Train it now. In the Merit World, every point may open the door to something bigger.
Challenge
When movement becomes rivalry
A future arena for competitions between nations, cities and communities — across distances, Shoe types and challenges still to be revealed.
The strongest runner may not always belong to the strongest team.
