Focus Hero — Focus Timer & Motivation
A pomodoro productivity timer fused with an RPG adventure, complete with your own Hero, to help you conquer distraction and crush procrastination.
Your Journey
Complete pomodoro focus sessions and forge productive habits. As you persevere, your Hero levels up, discovers loot, and earns Focus Energy. Spend that energy to venture ever deeper into a growing RPG world alongside your faithful companion.
Built in a real game engine with lovingly crafted pixel art, you can:
Traverse a 2D platforming adventure
Battle dark creatures
Free allies from the shadow of Lethargloom
Cultivate your forest with 80 wondrous flora
...yet all such rewards lie beyond the gate of true focus and concentration. There is no secret passage. The road is earned one session at a time.
Whether you are studying, working, or simply learning to be present, Focus Hero walks beside you. A steady companion against distraction, guiding you back when your mind strays from the path.
Features Worth Cherishing
A beautiful pomodoro timer with ambient sounds for study, work, and mindful focus
Regular rewards to sustain the will and keep wandering minds upon the road
STRICT mode: Bar the gates against other apps and banish phone addiction for bonus XP
