Kynva explained

What is Kynva?

Kynva is a camera-powered fitness game— a new category of sport where your real physical movement is the controller. You run, dodge and jump with your body in front of your device's camera, and every verified effort earns Influence for your club, which spends it to conquer real territory on a living world map. No wearable, no controller, no equipment — just movement.

The camera is your controller

Kynva turns the camera on your phone or computer into a private motion controller. It reads your body — squats, jumps, lane shifts and running — and translates them into the game in real time. There is nothing to wear and nothing to hold. The camera processing stays on your device, so your movement never leaves your machine.

The result is cardio that feels like a video game: short, intense sessions where dodging an obstacle or hitting a combo depends on how you actually move.

Three layers: Run, Clubs, World

Kynva is built from three connected layers:

  • Kynva Run — the core fitness gameplay. Run camera-powered routes, build a Move Score, and beat a daily challenge.
  • Kynva Clubs — your team and identity. Create or join a club and turn every metre you run into points for your crew.
  • Kynva World — a persistent world map fed by real activity. Your club spends the Influence you earn to claim, attack and defend territory.

How territory works

Kynva separates two things on purpose. Your lifetime distance is a permanent record of your physical activity — it can never be spent or lost. Influenceis a seasonal currency: one verified metre equals one Influence, added automatically to your club's treasury.

Your club spends Influence to claim neighbouring tiles on the map. Owners and captains can attacka rival club's tile, opening a 24-hour defense window; the defender spends Influence to hold it. If the attack outweighs the defense when the window closes, the tile changes hands. Every six weeks a new season resets the territory — but your distance, badges and trophies stay forever.

What you need

A device with a camera and a bit of space to move. No fitness band, no controller, no console. Kynva runs in the browser and works with the movement you already do.

Free and Pro

Kynva is free to play and free to join a club. Kynva Pro (CA$12.99 / month) unlocks unlimited runs, every world, advanced statistics and personalization. Pro sells content, stats and cosmetics — never territorial power. You can never buy Influence with real money.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a wearable or controller?

No. Kynva only uses your camera to detect movement, and processing stays on your device.

Is Kynva a running app or a game?

Both. It's real cardio driven by your body, wrapped in a competitive game where your club conquers a world map.

Can I buy Influence?

No. Influence is only earned by moving. Kynva Pro sells content and personalization, never power.
