Pokémon GO alternative

From the founder

I played Pokémon GO for three years and eventually quit. The thing I was missing never showed up: real land instead of fleeting gym captures. When Niantic sold Pokémon GO and its other games to Scopely in 2025 it was clear to me that the Niantic model wasn't heading anywhere I wanted to follow. So I'm building MapRaiders myself. No ads, no investor pressure, no required sub. My block is my playing field; yours is up for grabs.

Two worlds, one game

What you can do in MapRaiders

MapRaiders joins two worlds. Outside, you claim real streets and squares on the GPS map, on foot, running or by bike. Inside, you collect cards, build a deck around your commander and play in the arena, at home or away. Land you walk is meant to bring you cards.

Claim territoryYour route draws the border. Streets and squares on the real map become your territory.
Card game and arenaFifty cards around one commander. In the arena you play your deck against others, home or away.
