If you're looking for a unique way to get fit, Threkka might be just the app for you. Imagine joining a disgruntled Minotaur named Humbert on his quest to rehab his image and glutes. This isn't your typical fitness app; it's a whimsical journey that combines fitness tracking with a tycoon sim and a folklore-inspired narrative.
Threkka, which quietly launched on the App Store earlier this year, invites you to help rebuild the Gym Between, a once-glorious health hub in the interdimensional realm of Liminalia. Every step you take in the real world, whether it's a walk logged through your Apple Watch or a high-intensity interval training (HIIT) session recorded on Strava, contributes to the revival of this gym. Your efforts earn you Sweat, the game's core currency, which you can use to level up your Champs, unlock upgrades, and keep Liminalia's quirky characters in fighting shape.
What sets Threkka apart is its playful approach to fitness. Built on “fitOS” and “Dragon Drop,” it feels more like a game than a tracker. You'll navigate through the app with single-finger controls, enjoy absurd shop interactions, and meet lovingly detailed characters who not only level up but also rest, experience fatigue, improve specific movements, and grow stronger over time, mirroring your own fitness journey.

For those who find it all a bit too wholesome, Threkka still offers fun elements like placing interdimensional PhaseTime calls to the developer, feeding your unicorn GPS stabilizers, or exploring the narrative possibilities of a confetti-powered treadmill. Make your movement a little weirder with Threkka.
