The Power of Gamification in City Exploration

Gamification is at the heart of our interactive walking tours. By integrating points, badges, leaderboards, and real-time feedback, we transform city exploration into a dynamic adventure. According to industry experts, gamification increases session length, reduces churn, and turns passive users into active participants.

“Apps aren’t just tools anymore — they’re experiences. In 2025, users want more than features. They want to be engaged, challenged, and rewarded. That’s where gamification comes in.” — StudioKrew, Game Development Experts
