About

Drive and Block

Features
Read full description

Drive & Block: Energy Test is an interactive numerology game based on the Destiny Matrix. Discover what energies help you achieve your goals (Drive) and which ones hold you back (Block). How it works: Enter your name, birth date, and a goal (e.g., “I want to understand what helps and what blocks me from achieving my goal”). Roll the dice to move across a game board of 28 cells, including numbered energies, Chance cells, and Start Over cells. Land on numbered cells to see if each energy works as Drive (positive) or Block (negative). Special cells: Start Over – reformulate your goal and restart the game. Chance – roll to instantly complete your goal. Results & Insights: Track all energies you encounter, see which ones are Drive or Block, and understand what helps or blocks you from achieving your goal. Free vs Subscription: Free version: test only 3 goals. Monthly Subscription: unlock unlimited goals and get detailed, in-depth interpretations of each energy for a complete self-reflection experience. Yearly Subscription: unlock unlimited goals and receive full, detailed interpretations of all energies for a complete self-reflection experience — save compared to monthly subscription. Note: This app does not include gambling or monetary rewards. All results are for entertainment and self-reflection only.
