An idle RPG that only pays out when you actually go outside.

Long description

Go Touch Grass is an idle RPG with one rule: the only way to earn anything is to actually walk.

Your phone's step counter is the entire economy. Every kilometre turns into wood, stone, rarer materials, XP and Skill Points — and Skill Points cannot be bought, ever. Walking is always viable; running only improves your odds, never your access.

Spend what you earn on an isometric base that grows as your Gamer Den levels up. Build a Forge, a Watchtower, an Arsenal, a Laboratory. Wire up arrow, cannon and frost towers. Then defend all of it against the Couch Army in an endless, real-time tower defence raid — waves that scale forever, a boss every tenth one, and gold from kills that you spend mid-raid on powers called CHAIR-4, ALT+F4REEZE and POPOFF MODE.

There is a weekly Grass League scored purely on kilometres you walked and collected, six tiers of promotion and relegation, and an optional social layer for following friends and visiting their bases.

Not in the mood to walk right now? Wave Composer lets you build your own wave from the Couch Army roster and clear it in one attempt with your current base — no cooldown, no loot, unlimited retries, and a ranked leaderboard (all-time and monthly) for full clears only.

What there isn't: advertising, location tracking, or anything you can pay to get stronger. The app does not request a single location permission — the step sensor does all of it, and your steps never leave your device.

It is a game that is self-aware enough to tell you to stop gaming.
