GETTING STARTED
Everything a new player needs to begin their fitness adventure
Last Updated: March 2026
Step 1: Download Fitscape
Fitscape is available on iOS and Android. Download it from the App Store or Google Play to get started. The app is free to download and play; a premium subscription unlocks additional dungeon runs per day and advanced features.
Step 2: Create Your Character
When you first launch Fitscape, you will create a character. Your character is your avatar in the world of Laboris. You will choose:
Choose a Character Class
Your class determines your starting stat distribution and which stats level fastest. Choose the class that most closely matches your real-world fitness style.
| Class | Primary Stats | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| WARRIOR | Strength, Constitution | Weightlifters, gym athletes |
| RANGER | Dexterity, Wisdom | Runners, cyclists, outdoor athletes |
| ATHLETE | Constitution, Dexterity | Cross-trainers, all-around fitness |
| SCHOLAR | Intelligence, Wisdom | Yoga, Pilates, and mindfulness practitioners |
| MYSTIC | Wisdom, Intelligence | Meditators, Tai Chi, mindful movement |
| SOCIALITE | Charisma, Constitution | Group fitness, dance, team sports |
Your class affects starting stats but does not lock you out of any activity. You can still earn XP in all six stats regardless of class.
Step 3: Connect Your Health Data
On iOS, Fitscape reads your workout data from Apple Health. When prompted, grant Fitscape permission to read workout and activity data. Without this permission, no XP can be earned.
On Android, Fitscape works with Health Connect. See the Health Connect guide for Android-specific information.
What Fitscape Reads
- +Workout sessions (type, duration, calorie burn)
- +Step count and walking/running distance
- +Heart rate and active energy burned
- +Mindfulness minutes (for Wisdom XP)
Privacy Note
Fitscape only reads data you have granted permission for. Your health data is used solely to calculate XP and is never sold. See the Privacy Policy for full details.
Step 4: Complete a Workout and Earn XP
After connecting your supported health data source, complete a workout and return to Fitscape to sync — your activity will automatically convert to XP for the corresponding stat. On iOS, this can include workouts recorded by an Apple Watch, iPhone, or a HealthKit-compatible app. Android players can refer to the Health Connect guide.
How XP is Calculated
XP is calculated based on the type and duration of your workout. More intense and longer workouts earn more XP. Each activity type maps to a specific stat.
Example: 30-min Weightlifting
Maps to Strength (STR). Earns STR XP proportional to duration and calorie burn.
Example: 5km Run
Maps to Dexterity (DEX). Earns DEX XP based on distance and pace.
Example: 20-min Meditation
Maps to Wisdom (WIS). Earns WIS XP from mindfulness minutes logged.
Example: Group Fitness Class
Maps to Charisma (CHA). Earns CHA XP from group exercise duration.
Step 5: Understand Leveling
Fitscape has two parallel leveling systems — stat leveling and player leveling — that both advance as you exercise.
Stat Leveling
Each of the six stats (STR, DEX, CON, INT, WIS, CHA) levels up independently as you accumulate XP from matching activities. Each stat level grants a bonus:
- STR: +Inventory slots
- DEX: +Effectiveness with agility weapons/skills
- CON: +5 max Health per level
- INT: +3 max Mana per level
- WIS: +2 max Stamina per level
- CHA: +NPC interaction bonuses
Player Leveling
Your total accumulated XP across all stats contributes to your overall player level. When you reach a new player level:
- + You receive a notification
- + Health is fully restored
- + Stamina is fully restored
- + Mana is fully restored
- + New content may unlock
