Focus Quest: Study buddy 12+

I’ve been trying a few focus games over the last year or so since being diagnosed with ADD, and even before when I was still trying to figure stuff out. I can say with a lot of confidence that this is certainly one of the cutest and most helpful focus games I’ve used out of the many I’ve tried!

The art style is simple, but very cute, and the game play is easy to understand if you’ve played other idle games before too! I really love that there is a story to go along with it too, it keeps me at least a little interested in coming back every day to keep going and to make my character more powerful to defeat bosses and progress through the story. The art style in particular was a big reason I tried, and found I really liked this game, as I’ve tried off and on with Habitica before, and although I do like Habitica, I’m always really into character customization and wasn’t a big fan of Habitica’s art style for the player characters.

I’d love to see more character customization options if possible, even like a store or special quest area where you can earn new customization options by spending more time focusing, but I’m also not too far into the game just yet, so I might not have run into this sort of thing just yet. Otherwise, I really do like this game! It’s been a big help in getting me to do my work and not procrastinate like I did last year in college! Thank you devs for making such a cute, helpful game 🥰

I was fighting my game addiction so I was trying to find a game that’s still *fun* but *not addicting* and *not time consuming*, and this one is just perfect! I really love the feature that you need to work / study / focus on things in order to level up. Now it’s been a habit for me to open it when I start to work. The great thing is, it gives you a sense of achievement as you work / study, since you gain exp and points etc! Also, the time you focused can be used in next story stage, so you can work for a whole day and read several stages at night when you have the mood! Or if you are like me who start to have a habit to open this whenever you start to work, as you can imagine, you will then pill up 4000min+ focus time during the week and read many story stages on Sunday :D

The story is not very long (at this point to like stage 8.1 or 8.5 I think). But it’s not a problem. Even after story finishes you still can keep gathering points and exps to lvl up!

One suggestion is, can we have a count up timer? Or keep the rewards proportional to how long we have focused, when we stop the session earlier? I oftentimes face the scenario that “I planned to work for 2hr but then at 1hr 50min someone called me and I have to leave, so I must stop the app.” It’s discouraging that you lose all rewards when you do this.

Hi, thank you for trying Focus Quest - stay focused, study timer, focus app. The stopwatch feature and receive partial rewards when leaving early will be implmented in the next major feature update.

I really love how this app takes my need to progress in an adventure game and turns it into focus time! My screentime has gone way down since I started. I feel like I’ve really hit a standstill in the story though and I’m becoming less motivated to put in focus time. I’m over 117 hours of focusing at this point and I feel like the story hasn’t progressed since around 80 or so. It’s just a lot of “exploring focus land” and no other development, even when I level up. Otherwise, I love the app and have found it super useful.

Hi, thank you for trying Focus Quest - Stay Focused, Study Timer, Focus App. We'll try to add more chapters of the story as soon as we can. Hope we can help with your study and to-do!
