Price History of Amaru

Description of Amaru

Amaru is here to support your self-care! Feed, pet, customize, and play minigames with the adorable Amaru while being rewarded for taking care of yourself! The game contains engaging goal-setting, mindfulness, and journal activities that provide a fun way to build focus and resilience to stress, anxiety, and depression. Explore the mysterious world of Enso to earn Collectibles, unlock Amaru’s story, and help him find his way home! “Finally, a game that promotes (and reinforces) positive, long-term mental-health habits! It's enjoyable & the artwork is beautifully done. Daily goals are customizable, but there is a variety of preset goals to choose from to get you started. It's calming at the end of your day and refreshing at the beginning. Doesn't leave you frustrated and mentally depleted like most other games. Plus, magic kitties!” “It's clear that the people behind this app care about helping people. I am genuinely floored about how focused the game is on self-care and the player. This is especially apparent in the 'free trial' aspect of this app- none of the self-care elements are behind a paywall, and they have an entire system for people to donate full copies of the game to those in financial need. The game is reassuring and never unhealthily pressures. also the animation is so good. I'd say more but I have no more space.” FINANCIAL NEED? READ BELOW! Want the full version but can’t afford it? No problem! All the self-care features in the app are completely FREE, and the game contains NO ADS! There will be points where you will be asked to pay to unlock story features or optional skins, but if you have financial need, you can apply for a free copy through our Keys for Those in Need Program. You’ll be given a place in line, and when a copy becomes available, you’ll receive it for FREE! We just ask that you pay it forward when you can! WHAT’S INSIDE: • A virtual pet to feed, pet, and care for! • Make Amaru your own with custom colors and skins! • Beautiful hand-drawn animation that evolves as your Bond grows stronger. • A goal-setting system that rewards you for self-care. • Journaling modes that promote free expression and support well-being. • 20+ guided breathing and mindfulness meditation recordings scientifically shown to reduce stress, anxiety and depression with voicing and subtitles. • Fun, low-pressure Mini-games to play with Amaru • Gorgeous environments with unique, relaxing soundscapes like ocean waves or falling rain. • 100+ lore-rich items revealing details about the fantasy world of Enso and its inhabitants. • Hundreds of player-submitted Affirmation messages to brighten your day! LANGUAGES: This app is only in available in English, but we will be localizing to new languages soon.

  • I love this game!

    I’ve seen slot of self care apps that try to be games but this one it the first i enjoyed and it actually feels like one. The art style in amazing and the lore is interesting. These are also the first devs i’ve found that recognize that there’s alot of people who aren’t able to afford the premium version, so they created a donation pool which is really generous. This game has honestly helped me alot.

  • It's okay but...

    I wish that you could increase the max amount of daily bond, because it's a bit hard to upgrade the levels. Another problem is that there is not a lot of things to do if you are playing with no ingame purchases. However, if you buy golden keys, I'd feel like it's a waste of money because you'll eventually get bored of everything. There is actually not much things you can do in the game. The journals have a limit of what you can write. Once you reach it, you can write no more. The most confusing thing is making an account. You do not really need one to play the game, since the chance of random data resetting is really low. Other than that, I feel like the game's pretty okay. The winged cat named Amaru is cute, and the company probably worked hard to make the game. The animations probably took an expert. Thanks for reading my review. Have a nice day.
