South Korea
Run & own Seoul.
The Han River parks string the whole city together with runnable paths. Seoul is built to be claimed.
Stride turns your runs in Seoul into a territory game: every loop you run claims the real area you enclose on a live map — and rivals try to steal it back. The streets are unclaimed. For now.
