About this app

THE ONLY GAME THAT REWARDS YOU FOR NOT PLAYING IT


emberglow is a digital detox RPG that transforms every screen break into a meaningful adventure. Put down your phone, send your hero on a quest, and return later to uncover what happened while you were offline.

Designed as both a productivity game and a wellness experience, it helps you limit screen time, build mental resilience, and find mental clarity—without the guilt of traditional blockers.

Every time you choose no scroll over doomscrolling, your focus grows stronger.

WHISMICAL WORLD THAT GROWS WHEN YOU TURN OFF THE SCREEN


⚔️ Your hero’s journey unfolds only when you’re off-screen. Lock your phone and step away—your character continues their path through the hand-painted realm of Vaedros. When you return, you’ll find new story chapters, choices, and rewards.

In this way it’s not punishment for using your phone. Instead, it’s a calm invitation to reduce screen time and reconnect with real life.

A DIFFERENT KIND OF FOCUS GAME


🎯 While other limit screen time apps track minutes, emberglow rewards stillness. Each quest becomes a mindful ritual—a moment to pause, breathe, and regain digital wellbeing.

Perfect for study sessions, procrastination problems, creative breaks, or whenever you need to manage screen time without pressure.

A QUEST FOR MENTAL CLARITY & DIGITAL WELLBEING


🔮 Explore atmospheric tales that mirror your inner balance. Choose how your story unfolds and reflect on your progress. These moments of stillness become powerful tools for self-care, focus, and calm. And this makes emberglow ideal for players seeking therapeutic games or calm games for anxiety and phone addiction.

EMBERGLOW GAME FEATURES:


🎮 Digital detox RPG: progress only happens while offline
🕯 Mindful design: no ads, no distractions, only reflection
⚔️ Branching storylines: every quest and choice shapes your journey
🤝 Co-op quests: take a screen break together with a friend
🧘‍♂️ Reflection journal: optional post-quest journaling for mental clarity
📱 Screen time control: gently limit use without guilt or judgment
🎧 Narrated chapters: immersive storytelling and guided calm
🔥 Dopamine detox loop: the longer you stay off, the stronger you grow

WHY EMBERGLOW

😔 If you’ve ever felt trapped in:
• Doomscrolling that drains your focus
• Phone addiction that steals your time

In short: emberglow offers a better path to digital detox.
Here it’s not about restriction, it’s about reconnection.

► Build lasting study focus and productivity for work

A great idea to get us away from our devices! And it is fun!

Such a novel approach to productivity and keeping my phone put down. This is great for anyone who instinctively reaches for their phone out of boredom or to procrastinate.

Came from thepolymathpath on Instagram and I gotta say this app has suprised me! The idea is extremely cool, and a couple of the challenges, I kept failing haha but kept going until I finished them. Very cool app. Looking forward to see its future

Thank you for downloading the app, and for sticking with it until you completed the quests. Looking forward to making unQuest better and better. :)

What’s new

unQuest is now emberglow! Enjoy a brand new look, artwork, and truly branching storylines, including storylines that could spell death for your character.
