Your pet is only alive because you focused. Mochiverse is a focus timer with a pixel creature living inside it. Start a session, put the phone down, and your Mochi grows. Neglect it, and it doesn't. HOW IT WORKS - Hatch an egg. One of 5 species, chosen at random. - Pick 15, 25, 45 or 60 minutes, or set your own. - Focus. Your Mochi sleeps beside you and gains XP the whole time. - Finish and earn coins, food and a streak day. - Feed it, play with it, keep its health up between sessions. IT CAN ACTUALLY DIE Hunger, mood and health drain in real time, even while the app is closed. Let health hit zero and your Mochi is gone for good, into the Memorial Garden. It turns out nothing makes you come back tomorrow like a creature that needs you. 31 FORMS TO DISCOVER Every Mochi evolves through a branching tree, and the branch it takes depends on how you actually cared for it. Feed it well and it grows one way. Play with it and it grows another. Your Collection remembers every form you have ever reached. BUILT FOR REAL FOCUS - Live Activity on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island. Check the timer without unlocking. - Home Screen widget with your pet, your streak and today's minutes. - Focus subjects.
