Why we picked this?

Seek is like Pokemon Go, but with real prizes. After setting up an account, Seek will determine your location and display all of the treasure chests nearby. Hunt down common chests to earn coins, keys, and cash. Go after the rare, epic, and legendary chests to win bigger rewards like gift cards, headphones, fidget spinners, Amazon Echo speakers, and even Universal Studios tickets. The rare, epic, and legendary chests require keys to unlock, so you’ll have your work cut out for you. Get Seeking!

You want to get outside instead of gaming indoors.

Physical activity of any kind is too much for you. You can’t use any type of motorized vehicle to collect the chests.
