About The Fool's Steps
EXPLORE AND COLLECT
Travel through ten realms, read 1,000 journey stories and hunt for rare loot. Gather resources with axes, pickaxes and shovels, craft equipment at the Workbench and combine item stats with set bonuses to shape your build.
FIND YOUR PEOPLE
Chat with other travelers, join a clan and form parties of up to four players. Trade equipment in player markets, challenge other players in PvP and choose your protection settings with Safe Mode.
FACE THE ABYSSAL GATE
When this rare community event appears, work together to seal the gate. Most other activities pause during the event. Success brings rewards; failure destroys half of every account's carried gold, including offline accounts. Bank gold and Nova are protected. Full rules are explained in the game.
MAKE THE JOURNEY YOURS
Customize your avatar, complete quests, fish and visit the Wishing Well. Marry another traveler and care for a shared animated pixel Home Spirit: feed it, wash it, sing to it and play together.
Play in 13 languages, including English. An internet connection and an Apple or Google account are required. Optional in-app purchases are available.

User reviews
If you're looking for a simple text-based RPG where you take steps and collect gear, with a great community, you'll really enjoy this one! It's low pressure so you can play at your own pace and there's so many different things you can focus on working towards like leveling, PVP, crafting, etc.
Cozy game, very freeform, some of the prompts when walking paint a funny mental image. You can chat the Dev in-game about issues and questions and he actually answers back! Just don't be afraid to read and explore all the different menus and you'll be fine. See ya soon traveller

Really nice, interactive and also kinda chill? I like the vibe of the game and how lowkey it is.
if you're into games where you just love seeing numbers go up, then for sure this game is for you. the game has unlimited progression, the community is also growing and the best part of it is that you can grind together with them.
