How long can you do absolutely nothing? RAWDOG is a brutally simple focus game that uses face and eye tracking to see how long you can stay locked in. Face your phone, start the timer, and try to outlast yourself, your friends, and everyone on the leaderboard. HOW IT WORKS • Start a run and face your phone's camera. • Your timer climbs while you stay present. • Look away, close your eyes too long, or leave the frame and you'll get a short warning. • Recover before the countdown ends or it's game over. • At each hour of your run, tap to confirm you're still here. • Save your run, then choose whether to post it to the leaderboard. MAKE DOING NOTHING COMPETITIVE • Today, This Month, and All Time leaderboards. • Private boards for competing with friends. • Public player profiles with days rawdogged, streaks, best scores, and daily podium trophies. • Personal score history and a streak to keep alive. • Shareable score cards saved to your camera roll. BUILT TO KEEP YOU LOCKED IN • On-device face and eye tracking. • Quick recovery when you look back after a warning. • Tracking health checks for longer runs. • Pending saves kept on your phone when your connection drops. • A guided intro and clear instructions. • Optional RAWDOG news and community event notifications. Camera access and a device that supports ARKit face tracking are required for gameplay. Notification permission is optional. Runs started offline can be saved to My Scores but do not qualify for leaderboards or trophies. Daily and monthly competition periods follow Eastern Time. Most people think they can last longer than they can. How long can you RAWDOG it?
