New to Flutter: Is it feasible to build a multiplayer game app with live tracking, geofencing zones, chat, calls, timer, roles & stats?

Getting Started

Hi everyone!

I’m brand new to Flutter, but I want to build a single mobile app (downloadable on Android/iOS) with the following features. I’m eager to know if all this is technically possible in Flutter, and which packages, sample apps or tutorials I could follow:

  1. Game room flow (Host & Join)

A “New Game” button with two options:

  • Host new game → generates a random room code (e.g., ZIL‑KWS).

  • Join game → players enter that code to join the same game session.

  1. Live group tracking with geofence zones

Once joined, each player grants location permission.

Host can draw/edit a geofence area (a circle on a Google map).

All players see each other’s positions live on the map.

(Optional) App detects enter/exit events for geofence zones.

  1. Game timer

Host presses “Start”, beginning a countdown timer (e.g. 60 min, adjustable).

App sends a push notification when the timer hits zero.

Timer stays active even if the user switches tabs in the app.

  1. In-app tabs (UI navigation)

Within the active game, players can freely switch between:

Role card (pictures) – tap to select your role.

Rules (game instructions).

Missions (list of objectives, to be checked off and count points you scored).

Chat (group messaging during the game).

  1. Role selection, mission tracking & scoring

Role cards have images; player taps to select.

Missions linked to role; players earn points in real-time.

At game end, app tallies points and records winner/loser.

  1. Player profiles & statistics

Players sign up with email/password → unique account.

Stats tracked: games played, total points, wins/losses.

After game ends, show a summary: “You were [Role], scored X points, you won/lost”.

Stats saved to user profile for future review.

What I’d like to know is:

  1. Is it feasible in Flutter?
    Can all the above be built in one app, using existing packages or is heavy custom native code needed?

  2. Which packages or sample projects best cover these features?

  • Room/host/join flow? (fire_game_infra, live_game_lib, or similar)

  • Real-time tracking + geofence zones? (e.g. geofence_flutter, geofence_service, or open-source GroupTrack)

  • Countdown timer + background notification? (flutter_local_notifications, Timer, workmanager)

  • Chat + live location sharing (Firebase/Firestore based)?

  • Voice calls (WebRTC/Agora/Stream SDK)?

  1. Any full sample app or boilerplate that integrates multiple of these features?

Thank you so much in advance! I want to build this as a complete app with all features in one place, and any pointers, sample repos, tutorials or tips would be amazing.

As long as you don’t need the geofencing working while the app is in the background (although that Hass been solved from people too) I don’t see why it should be any problem.
On the question which packages, so are there so many options that I don’t believe we can give you a list from your description.

If you get startet and need to solve something specific just open a new thread for that and we will help.
