Woke up to seeing @PlayMonsterWalk in the top charts! 🌟

For the first time in Talofa history, we entered the Top 5 Free Adventure category. It's unreal seeing us next to games like Pokémon GO!!

We've seen tens of thousands of players playing every single day, changing lives!

This is a first for us: Top of the front page of @GooglePlay 🤯

In less than 2 weeks since opening up to the US and Europe, we've already seen 1 billion steps taken by players on Android and iOS in @PlayMonsterWalk!

Beyond grateful for this moment with the @TalofaGames team

We launched @PlayMonsterWalk in the US and Europe! This week has been a nonstop sprint - I did a 1:25 half-marathon PR on Sunday (6:32 min/mile)!

In just 8 hours, players took 30 million steps and collected 15,000 monsters — beating early access in a single day.

Proud to see Run Legends, @TalofaGames first fitness game, featured by @GooglePlay for the Sydney Marathon — a race on my bucket list!

After a week of daily runs through Cologne during devcom + gamescom, I felt firsthand how powerful it is to have fitness games to play.

2/2🧵Meeting the Porter team and @cindywangders at the start with prizes on the line gave me the push I needed to negative split.

Running a surprise marathon reinforced how powerful gamified movement can be — pre-reg and pre-order @PlayMonsterWalk now! https://t.co/uc2PzVnTSK

Proud to see @TalofaGames featured by @GooglePlay in their #WeArePlay global campaign for developers making a positive impact!

Over 7 million steps have been taken in the @PlayMonsterWalk, already 7x more than last week!

[Talofa Games @TalofaGames]

Huge thank you to our closed beta and early access players for getting us to this milestone in record time! 🏃💨

[Jenny Xu | Talofa 🔜 DICE @xujennyc]

1 million steps taken already.

Blown away by the steps, coverage, and now a @GooglePlay feature for @PlayMonsterWalk!

I'll be at #Gamescom2025 for the first time! DM me if you’ll be there and want an early preview of what's next, or to join me for a walk and some steps!

🧵 1/5 I thought the only way to stay motivated was to train harder. I was wrong.
As a sub-3-hour marathoner, I know how tough motivation can be. While building @PlayMonsterWalk, I discovered something magical: reconnecting with drive in a way that’s light, and sustainable.

1/ Ran 28 miles for my 28th birthday—my longest run ever—because startups don’t stop running. 💥

Here’s a quick update on @TalofaGames, what we did at #paxeast2025, and a sneak peek for what’s next 🧵 #founderjourney

[Talofa Games @TalofaGames]

Huge congrats to our founder Jenny for her INCREDIBLE performance at the #BostonMarathon!!

[Jenny Xu | Talofa 🔜 DICE @xujennyc]

1/3🏃Ran my first #BostonMarathon this week—3:02 on the hilly course after aiming for sub-3:00. Not perfect, but I’m darn proud. What made it even more special? I ran it with my mom. A dream since my MIT days, and something I’ll never forget. ❤️

[Jenny Xu | Talofa 🔜 DICE @xujennyc]

always listen to the users!!🫰they will tell you what u really need in your game 🥰

[Talofa Games @TalofaGames]

Thanks so much to the @AppStore team for featuring us! ❤️

[Jenny Xu | Talofa 🔜 DICE @xujennyc]

It's the last day of GDC and got a surprise at 5 am that @TalofaGames 's story and @PlayRunLegends is being featured on the @AppStore! It's been a nonstop week with the highlights being hosting a 6 am GDC run Tuesday and giving a talk on getting funding the same day.

#gdc2025

[Talofa Games @TalofaGames]

Come see our founder talk funding at #GDC2025!
