About

Roost brings back old school messages with carrier pigeons and snail mail. You send a note, a bird picks it up, and it flies across the world to your friends. No instant delivery. No read receipts ten seconds later. Just a little bird in the air, carrying your words, taking the time it takes. Watch yours and your friends birds fly in real time around the world. Be in the moment. Send something and go live your day. When your bird lands, it lands. BUILD YOUR ROOKERY Catch birds of every feather. Your favorite New York Pigeon, rare cardinals, mythical phoenixes. Every one has its own speed based on their real speeds. Feed them, level them up, watch your flock grow. REAL MAPS, REAL FLIGHTS Every delivery flies a real route across a real map. Track your bird as it goes. See where it is, how far it's come, when it's landing. FRIENDS, NOT FEEDS No algorithms. No endless scroll. Just your people and the birds that carry your words. Add friends by username and keep your circle small and good. TRAIN YOUR FLOCK Quick mini games boost speed, have fun. A faster pigeon means a faster message. A better flock means a better rookery. WEEKLY REWARDS Log in for daily drops. Claim new birds from rotating events. Hunt for mythic birds in limited time releases. Slow your messages down. Send them by pigeon. Download Roost and launch your first flight.
