Read full descriptionHide full description
Kitty Gambit is a calm focus timer built around an ambient tabletop scene. Start a work session, choose your companion cats, and let them play chess or checkers in the background while you concentrate. The timer stays simple: work and break sessions, gentle sound options, mute controls, and a full-screen watch view designed to sit quietly on your desk. The board game continues automatically, so there are no turns to manage and no extra decisions pulling you away from the task. This first release is free and includes chess, checkers, four companion styles, cozy background audio, configurable timer alerts, and separate top and bottom player customization.
