The Microsoft Band as a device has been Microsoft’s take on the smartwatch paradigm. Unlike Apple and Google, it is focused on health and fitness tracking with a few extra features like notifications for email and messaging present in the band. That may be set to change with future apps and updates.

An app was discovered in the Windows store that shows what appears to be a game for your Windows mobile device with the Microsoft band as a companion device. From the screenshots, the game play revolves around moving a small cutesy paintball character around a maze of obstacles presumably using your wrist as a controller. It’s the first of its kind as far as we can see and it may possibly be used as a test bed by Microsoft for new scenarios with the band and your Windows mobile device.

Download the app from the Windows store link below(or not).
