Adopt a rock. That's it. That's the game. Your rock does nothing — and it does it perfectly. Pet it, feed it minerals it won't eat, polish it to a proud dull finish, and watch the Zen flow in as your rock sits there, unbothered, thriving. EARN ZEN BY DOING NOTHING Your rock generates Zen every second, even when you're away. It's not lazy. It's geological. DRESS YOUR ROCK Googly eyes. A tiny hat. Sunglasses for a sun it cannot perceive. A crown, because it earned it by sitting still. A friend pebble — they will never speak, and they are best friends. ACHIEVEMENTS Pet the rock 1,000 times. Reach Enlightenment. Own everything. History will remember none of it. RANDOM EVENTS A bird may land on your rock and pay rent. A snail may challenge it to a race. The rock will win by not entering. Just you and a rock, doing nothing together. Optional tips exist if you wish to thank the rock. It will display no gratitude. Warning: the rock does nothing. That is the point.

BittyPals is a quiet life with one cat. Name your pal, then share a small yard: meals on the plate, naps on the cushion, yarn on the grass, and a seesaw in the sand. Feed, play, clean up, and let them sleep so happiness stays high. Happiness lives on a 0–100 score you can see on the yard. Meals, play, and a full night’s rest help. Missed meals, a messy lawn, or leaving them awake too long without a visit pull it down. Settings keeps a history of the last 30 days, this year, and lifetime totals. On the Lock Screen and Home Screen, BittyPals can show a Live Activity, Dynamic Island (supported iPhones), and a widget so you still see how they’re doing when the app is closed. Made for iPhone and iPad. No account. No in-app purchases. Just you and one cat.
