HOW IT WORKS

Go out.
Build your empire.

Your activity becomes part of a shared territory game. You keep a private history of your movement along the way.

01

Choose your activity

Pick Walk, Run or Bike before you start. Glance at your stats, use the private map if you want, and pause when you take a break.

02

Explore a path or make a loop

Cells touched by your route count. A qualifying loop can also include the territory inside it. A pause doesn’t draw a bridge across your break.

03

Review, then Save or Delete

Finish brings you to a private review. Save submits or safely queues the derived activity data. Delete before Save discards the pending activity without changing the game.

04

See your territory change

Empty cells are captured. Your cells gain reinforcement and repair defense. A visit to another empire’s cells lowers their defense; when it reaches zero, you take ownership.

Each cell is affected once per saved activity. Running and cycling personal records are kept separately; walking doesn’t create those records.

A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS

Before your first outing

Can I download Incrementum now?

Public downloads and TestFlight invitations aren’t open yet. Incrementum is being tested privately on iPhone. This website’s fictional-map demo is available to explore without installing the app.

Do Walk, Run and Bike affect territory differently?

They use the same territory rules. The activity type determines pace or speed displays and the relevant private records.

How does reinforcement work?

A newly captured cell starts with one reinforcement and one defense. Returning increases reinforcement; maximum defense grows with the square root of the reinforcement count. A visit also repairs lost defense, up to that new maximum.

Can other players see my route?

Raw coordinates and route shapes are not uploaded to Incrementum’s backend. Derived affected map cells are uploaded and can identify fine-grained visited areas. Resulting territory can be seen by signed-in players; your activity history and records are private to your account. Read the full policy.

What happens if I’m offline?

Save can queue the derived activity data for later synchronization. Finish alone leaves an activity in review. During the beta, check the app’s queued or saved status before assuming synchronization is complete.

Does the website demo use my location?

No. Its cells, activities and players are fictional. It runs in your browser without a login or game-server connection. Reloading resets it.

Will there be an Android version?

Current development and private testing focus on iPhone. Android needs further platform work; there’s no Android release date to announce.

How do I get help or reset my password?

Use the password-reset option in Incrementum and follow the newest email. Never forward a reset link or password to support. The support page explains how to report a problem.
