How SideQuest Works

SideQuest is a real-world adventure game you play with one buddy. There are no daily tasks, no streak shame, and no demand language. Just three simple loops that make real life feel like a co-op game.

1. Pair with a buddy

After you sign up, head to pair and share a 6-character invite code with one person — partner, friend, sibling, anyone. SideQuest is intentionally two-player. XP, levels, and rare loot are shared by the pair, so progression is something you build together, not against each other.

2. Roll a quest

From your dashboard, pick a budget (Free, Low $1–10, Medium $10–30, High $30+) and an intensity (1–5, from cozy to bold). SideQuest rolls a random real-world mission tuned to those constraints. Don't like it? Reroll. The dice handle decision fatigue for you.

XP per intensity

  • Intensity 1 (cozy) — 35–50 XP
  • Intensity 2 (gentle stretch) — 70–130 XP
  • Intensity 3 (real adventure) — 130–200 XP
  • Intensity 4 (bold) — 200–320 XP, with built-in safety plan
  • Intensity 5 (legendary) — 400 XP, with escape plan + code word

3. Complete together & level up

Do the quest with your buddy. Mark it complete and the pair earns XP, sometimes a cosmetic drop, and progress on a daily streak that respects rest days. Skipping is fully supported — it doesn't reset anything.

Level ladder

  • Wanderer (0) → Pathfinder (200) → Drifter (500)
  • Catalyst (1,000) → Sentinel (1,800) → Voyager (3,000)
  • Realm Walker (5,000) → Mythmaker (8,000) → Reality Legend (12,000)
