Bati: Fitness RPG

Train like a hero, build like a king.

Bati turns strength training into a dark-fantasy RPG. A workout is a quest. Reps land as damage on a boss. The muscles you actually work raise the buildings of a village that grows out of what you lifted, not out of what you bought.

SPORT FIRST, RPG SECOND

The training logic leads and the game amplifies it. Nothing decorative gets between you and your next set: large tap targets, high-contrast text, and a screen designed for one hand in a noisy gym.

WHAT YOU GET

• Quests: guided sessions with targets that adapt to your level

• Adventures: multi-session campaigns with a story between steps

• Boss fights: reps become damage; weaknesses and criticals make the numbers mean something

• Outings: walk, run or ride; the ground you cover raises the road out of the village

• A village: buildings level up from the volume you actually logged

• Oaths: pick one goal and let the app hold you to it

• Reminders: on the days you choose, scheduled on the phone, no server

• Backups: as a file, or automatic into a folder you pick, encrypted if you ask

• Sync: one hero across several phones

• Five languages: English, French, German, Spanish, Russian

• A journal: history, records, your flame, muscle balance

YOUR TRAINING STAYS ON YOUR PHONE

No account. No sign-up. No server of ours. No analytics, no ads, no tracking of any kind. Your sessions, your records and the GPS trace of an outing live in a database on your device. Your phone's own system backup can carry it, like any app's data, and you can turn that off. Uninstalling the app deletes it from the phone, not the copies you made elsewhere.

Three features use the network, each behind its own switch in Settings, and all three start off:

• The map behind an outing's route. The phone asks OpenFreeMap (OpenStreetMap data, from tiles.openfreemap.org) for tiles, the square images a map is made of, around where you go. That tells the host roughly where you were, with your IP address and the time. Off, the route is drawn on a plain background.
