Talofa Games
Talofa Games is a San Francisco studio that turns real-world movement into playable adventure. Founded by MIT-trained runner and game maker Jenny Xu, the studio builds 'fitness-first' mobile games - flagship title Run Legends is a co-op RPG where walking and running power your attacks, and Monster Walk turns everyday steps into a base-building, story-driven quest. Backed by $6.3M in seed funding and staffed by veterans from EA, 2K, and Riot Games, Talofa is trying to make exercise something you look forward to rather than schedule.
