Your neighbourhood is the playground.
Every street hides a story. Every square, a quest. Walk, discover and play — right outside your front door.
- For the whole family
- Playing means going outside
- iOS & Android at launch
Hometale is a free GPS adventure game for families. Players explore their own, real village or town on foot — every street can hide a story. No ads, no timers, no tracking: your location is never stored on our servers. Hometale is launching for iOS and Android. The game currently covers the Netherlands, with real Dutch streets and places — that's why the place search below works in Dutch.
The proof
Not a made-up world — your church, your street, your story. Hometale already recognises more than 2,500 Dutch towns and villages, with real street names and real places.

How it works
No rush, just a story
Explore
Take your usual walk — the world around you slowly comes alive.
Discover
Real places, real stories — and little creatures waiting to be brought home.
Home is where it continues
Your house, your collection, your journal — the adventure waits quietly until you're back.
For parents
Screen time that leads outside.
Hometale is built for walking together, not for staying indoors.
- No timers or penalties
- No ads or strangers
- Location stays on the device
Companions
You never walk alone.
Your loyal companion joins every walk — looking over your shoulder, whether you pass the church for the hundredth time or turn down a new street for the first time.
The mystery
Every place hides one mystery of its own.
The one in your town is still closed. There's only one way to find out.
