MyndQuest: Social + GPS + Fun for Android
Introducing, MyndQuest! The new GPS, GeoLocation-based checkin app! It's a virtual scavenger hunt!
- Strongly influenced by the app formerly known as Gowalla, you can:
- Found new Spots and Locations
- Check in (or Pillage and Defend)
- Unlock location-based GeoQuests (States/Provinces/Countries)
- Get random items, drop them, swap them at other locations, or just collect them. You might find a glass of wine or maybe an Escaped Convict! You might even find Corruption! Either way, it's yours to keep or trade.
- Defend against other users who will pillage your locatons and may take control of them.
- Look out for disruptive barbarians (a random computer element) who are out to capture your spots!
- Every time that you travel to a new country, state, province, etc, you will earn a GeoQuest badge! So get out and explore!
- Ability to upload user profile pictures and add friends! See where your friends go and what items they have collected!
- MyndQuest is ultimately a social app; with some Geolocation gaming elements.
- Push Notifications to notify you of friend activity and pillaging warnings
**** THIS APP REQUIRES GPS AND/OR LOCATION SERVICES TO BE ON
DISCLAIMER: Since this is very new, there is a large chance you will be the only one in the area with it installed. Therefore, it is up to YOU to begin creating spots and map out the world. this app requires a minimum of two local users before you see the benefits! So get a friend going on it too!
This app uses both Miles and Kilometers based on user settings.
Requires a FREE user account to access. Simply enter a username/password/email and you're set up!
Requires Android 4.1+
PERMISSIONS: many of the permissions in this app are required to access your Google+ account information but ONLY if you choose to log in and give permission once inside the app. We also use Google Cloud Messaging which requires several permissions to send status bar push notifications between users. Lastly, we need the GPS and internet permission, because, honestly, without the internet and your location, this would not be an app.
Developed by KickingLettuce Studios; the app is currently ad-free.
Great game hope it gets support
Haha newport is mine! (Tim)
How I've missed you Gowalla and all of its virtual treasure hunting glory. But MyndQuest makes me forget some of the pain of the loss. Random items, and Pillaging! What else can you ask for?

i finally found the instruction on how to create places since there are non in my area, Tampa, listed, but.... i hit + to add a place to check into and the map, STUPIDLY WONT LET ME ZOOM OUT AND MOVE THE AREA..WHY DOES IT KEEP SAYING IM 4-5 BLOCKS FROM WHERE I AM?!!!!!!! I have location on, etc, etc...but no matter what it wont let me move the map and pick the location...also, why is there the option to switch to google map view if it wont let me add the location from there....the google map worked fine like it should and i was able to move the pin to my actual location, but God forbid i be able to in the satellite view so that i can add no where it wants to assume i am, but where i really am. guys...this is a basic need of the app and its flawed right off the bat
