Randonauting is becoming quite the craze, isn’t it? Maybe not as big as Pokémon Go (yet), but it’s a similar interactive experience that gets you up and out of your house. If you’re not yet familiar with this new form of exploring or are on the fence about it, maybe this Randonautica review will clear some things up.
Randonautica Review: What Is it?
First off, in case you’re not familiar with it, let’s do a quick recap of what it is.
Randonautica is an app that asks, “What if there is more wonder to wandering?”
Randonauting is what the app helps you do, and a randonaut is what you become when you use the app to explore.
Randonautica Review: How Does It Work?
How does the app help you explore? It is “the world’s first quantumly generated choose your own adventure reality game. Explore the world you never knew existed.”
You choose how your radius (how far you want to travel), and then you pick whether you want one coordinate (destination) or multiple.
Then you pick your quantum point. You have three options to choose from:
- Attractor – Center of the highest cluster of quantum dots
- Void – Center of the least cluster of quantum dots
- Anamoly – Will deliver the strongest of either the attractor or the void option
Last, you set your intention. What kind of adventure do you want to have? What do you want to be led to or see or find? This is the time to envision it.
Then off you go into the wild blue yonder –or would that be wild blue wonder?– to see if your intention will manifest.
Randonautica Review: Does It Work?
Judging by the popularity of #randonautica and #randonauting hashtags on social media, there are a lot who seem to think so. They’ve been going crazy posting their randonauting adventures.
But did you hear about the randonauts who found a body in a suitcase? Not sure what kind of intention they set but yowza. They definitely got more than they bargained for.

There is an app called Randonautica that brings you to random “high density Quantum points” from your “intent” (you can look up more info on your own). A cut up dead body was found at one of these high energy points. @TheRandonauts #randonauting #staysafe pic.twitter.com/L5HTfZOVYT

But it’s not all grim discoveries. Some people find magical meanings, while others find nothing but seem open to trying again.
My intent was to find something magical hmm I found this #randonautica #randonauting pic.twitter.com/c7eciTjQOG

Randonautica Review: Is It Worth It?
Well, I’m not sure what happens when you find a body in a suitcase. If you’re looking for a story to tell that’s going to get you 15 minutes of fame but be very hard to ever top again, then it’s worth it.
It doesn’t cost anything though and it does have the potential to lead you beyond your normal boundaries if you’re open to such things.
However, don’t forget to bring along your other senses: common and sixth. If something doesn’t look or feel right, abort! Abort! No matter what kind of exploring you do, safety should always be your number one priority.
What Happened When We Randonauted?
Well, to be honest, not much.
Although, randonauting is all about finding synchronicity. We did find that –sort of.
As we set out, “Synchronicity” by The Police was playing on the radio.
Probably the neatest thing to come out of it all happened when I posted “Randonautica: What Is This New Form of Exploring?” John left this comment:
So this morning I set an intention to have an adventure of a questing nature. A weird type of experience. My next thought was ‘How the hell do I start that? Where do I look? Que your blogpost in my inbox! Thank you!
First off, it’s me who needs to thank John for subscribing and receiving HJ posts direct to his inbox. (Especially with how much I’ve been writing lately.) Thanks, John!
Second, is this more proof that setting intentions works?
I’ll let you be the judge…

Have you tried randonauting yet? What would your Randonautica review be?
Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.
Speaking of mystical, to learn how Courtney channeled her battle with cancer to conjure up this site, check out HJ’s Origin Story.
I saw that news story about the poor teens who found a body in a suitcase. I’m glad for the family of the missing victim, that they got closure, but what a terrible experience for all involved. Ergo, nope, I won’t be trying Randonautica. I’m a chicken. I own it.:-)
Such a shocking story. Which is what some people like. But I bet if they really found a body (myself included), I’d be absolutely sick about it. Happy to bring closure –or at least answers– to a family, but devastated to get that acquainted with the dark side of humanity.
