It's not exactly the same, but I can vouch for StreetComplete being an incredibly good/similar game. You walk around the real world, and the app points out missing data in OpenStreetMap that you can fill in easily. You get the dopamine of a number going up, help dethrone proprietary map dominamce, and get some good excercise in in the process.

That'd be awful for me, my primary use of google maps is streetview to figure out what places look like before I go there

There is an app. Fog of the world is the name. Havent tried it personally.

You know, I would really like to try this.

I'll wait until they add fast travel.

You folks actually leave the house? Impressive!

This is reposted all the time and the answer has kept being: Pikmin Bloom. It's F2P, you reveal the areas you physically visit and the rest of the map is grey. It'll track your steps and location in the background, so all you have to do is have your phone on you.

I would visit every corner of the world trying to find all the loot and collectables

Because of the GDPR, Google offers a download of all collected data about you. When you have your location history enabled, this should be part of it. If that's in a useful data format to parse, one could program this with the actual data of one's movement

Stop giving Google ideas on how to track us even more.

My map would look really sad

Everyone in this thread should try geocaching! It is really fun

Did this dude fast travel? Like why are there separated clear areas on the bottom left and bottom right?

Y'all should try Ingress. 😅 Doesn't really have fog of war, but you do get to visit art in search of portals for portal-keys. 😜

It's the company that made Pokemon Go's more-serious first app that came out years before P-Go did, as one of the first of its kind, though it only got interest from the more niche communities. I played it until G+ got slaughtered, as it was the main base of communications and Ingress communities.

Everytime somebody of your family or friends is inside the known area there should be an alert: reinforcement has arrived.
Or an alert about new options if you unfog a new building like a restaurant.

Ok this, but on geoguessr would be fire

I had an idea where I would walk in a radius of few kilometers and walk on every street, etc. I wonder how long would it take, lol.

Someone make an app for that :P

I just want to be able to establish lodestones so I can tele to places

gta v map menu but irl

That would be amazing
