## What is Pocket Reality?

Every day, a surreal new reality will be created just for you! Enter an open world where everyday objects come to life and you can play any way you want.

Maybe you're defending a cabbage moon from horse pirates. Maybe you're solving the murder of a wealthy spoon. Maybe you've always wanted to manage your own submarine farm, or date a strawberry? Maybe all of the above. The possibilities are endless!

Experience a daily procedurally generated text adventure that was never seen before and will never be seen again. Pocket Reality features a roguelite structure. Your choices have lasting consequences, danger is everywhere, and eventually you will be defeated and/or cause the world to be devoured. But don't worry: you'll start fresh tomorrow, and every defeat makes you stronger!

It's also a strategy game where you need to manage your loyalties to four factions, deciding whom to support and whom to oppose. The world is interconnected and full of conflict. Every character and location has a level that changes based on your actions or inaction. If you help someone increase their level, they'll produce resources over time and unlock new opportunities. But you can't help everyone at the same time...

Includes dozens of achievements and secrets to discover.

Play the complete game for free, forever, with no ads. Permanent in-app purchases are available to add a second world per day and unlock expansion content.

Accessible with VoiceOver.

### 5/5 — Weird fun

*2026-01-18, version 2.1*

Bizarre and surprisingly engaging. Good for waking up in the morning. I love it.

### 5/5 — A very good app, especially for the visually impaired

*2026-01-17*

I am a VoiceOver user and this game is very accessible using Voice’over. I play this game a lot and I really enjoy the randomness of objects coming to life. The additions of Noctern and Double Mode are extremely enjoyable as they add a whole lot more new content. I know that a lot of effort has gone into making this game, but I have a few suggestions. It may be a good idea to have a home base for the player, as when Noctern is downloaded, there is a piece of text that mentions your home. It would be a good idea to have a school setting with naughty children  as well as maybe some kind of assistant for the merchant. This is a very good game over all and thank you for making it accessible.

### 5/5 — Good with one bump

*2025-07-17*

I love this game! This is a game I play everyday day but it’s hard to go forward and hard to understand. I don’t pay attention to the story because it repetitive and the time isn’t on my time. Maybe find a way to sync to the devices time? Other than that I do like it!

### 5/5 — Cute and simple

*2025-04-13, version 2.1*

Manages to distract for a few moments at a time and that’s I’ll I look for in a phone game

### 4/5 — Simple, just the way I like it

*2025-04-08*

Most games I get you have to log in or wait obnoxious times for a small reward, plus it’s loaded with ads. This game doesn’t force ads to continue and people can take it at their own pace. Not only that but it also isn’t crammed with rules and gameplay but is a nice pick up and play game. And in case I haven’t said it enough, it isn’t packed with ads. Overall really nice, simple game.

### 5/5 — Unique / Original Style of Game!

*2025-04-07, version 2.1*

I haven’t played many text rpg adventurers game either in RL or on an electronic device. But even with the little knowledge I have of this genre and can. Firmly reply that it was defiantly a new and reffreshibbg take on playing through a story. I find myself drawn to this style of game cause why read a book when I cans play one in tandem with reading it together. 
I only made it through my first adventure but like it explains I. The menu I should have no fear of of getting having up in story some place cuz even afk it seems my charcuter will get ever stronger making things just a little less challenging each play through. I’m eager to see where else this world I’ve found myself in takes me, but I can be sure it will be an experience I’ll enjoy and forever remember.

### 5/5 — Daily adventures

*2025-03-25*

I didn’t think I’d like it at first but I’ve kinda gotten invested in seeing more stories. Seriously considering purchasing the DLC for the extra content but also don’t want to go through all the scenarios too quickly. Keep up the great work, dev.

### 5/5 — Fun

*2025-03-17*

Enjoyable text based rpg

### 5/5 — I love it!
