Discover the city as a game
CityFox builds a walking guide through the wonderful places around you — historic corners, hidden landmarks, letting you solve challenges, earn coins, and unlock new cities as you go
How it worksWhat is CityFox?
CityFox is a free guide to the city you live in or the one you are visiting. Tell it where you want to start and where you want to go, and it draws a walking route through the most interesting places in between.
Every stop comes with a short story and a small visual riddle, so a normal walk becomes a quiet adventure through the culture and history of your streets.
How it works
-
Pick two points
Tap a start and a destination on the map — or ask for a round trip that brings you back home. CityFox connects remarkable places into one walkable path and shows you the way.
-
Or choose from hundreds of existing routes
Find an existing route that suits your mood – a quick coffee break, a deep dive into the history of your district, or a challenging, quiz-level route for the intellectually curious
-
Walk and discover
At each place you reach, unlock its story and a small question about what you see.
-
Earn your way
Answer questions, collect coins and gems, and finish the route with a final quiz about the district. Unlock other cities with steps made during your walks
Economics
You can walk every route and read every story without paying a cent. After registering, you receive enough coins for several routes. By completing routes and answering questions, you earn more coins. As you walk, your steps contribute to a journey toward the next city, which you can unlock once you reach it.
Of course, you can accelerate your progress, instantly unlock cities, and access premium routes by purchasing gems. But even gems can sometimes be earned as a reward for your efforts!
