Age of Pomodoro: A City-Building Game That Rewards Focus
Shikudo, the developer behind the popular walking and focus game, Focus Plant, has launched a new app designed to boost productivity and digital wellness: Age of Pomodoro: Focus Timer. This innovative game blends the tried-and-true Pomodoro Technique with engaging city-building mechanics.
Shikudo's portfolio already includes several successful titles focusing on productivity and fitness, such as Focus Plant: Pomodoro Forest, Striving: Pomodoro study timer, Focus Quest: Pomodoro adhd app, Pocket Plants: Grow Plant Game, Fitness RPG: Walking Games, and Fit Tycoon – idle clicker game.
Age of Pomodoro Gamifies Focus
Unlike traditional games that reward combat or resource gathering, Age of Pomodoro lets players build and expand a thriving civilization simply by focusing on their tasks. The Pomodoro Technique, involving 25-minute focused work sessions followed by 5-minute breaks, is cleverly integrated into the gameplay. Each minute of focused work translates directly into progress within the virtual empire.
Focused work builds farms, marketplaces, and even world wonders. Each new structure boosts the in-game economy, creating a positive feedback loop where sustained concentration leads to greater prosperity. As the civilization grows, new residents arrive, further increasing productivity and accelerating progress. Players will also engage in diplomacy and trade, forming alliances and acquiring resources.
Visually Stunning Idle Gameplay
The game boasts vibrant and detailed graphics, bringing the city to life. Its idle game mechanics make it accessible and enjoyable, even for players with limited time. Age of Pomodoro successfully transforms mundane tasks into engaging game objectives.
Available for free on the Google Play Store, Age of Pomodoro: Focus Timer offers a unique and rewarding approach to improving focus and productivity.
