Brain-powered mobile games that strengthen focus, calm, and creativity.

Mindful Garden

Grow roses, tulips, lilies, marigolds, and daffodils by harnessing focus and calm. Customize your garden with decorations like gnomes, statues, and paths to create a peaceful space that’s entirely yours. And when you’ve grown something special, you can even send a flower to a friend, because nothing says “I’m thinking of you” like a bloom grown with your mind.

Hearts & Heal

A joyful village has fallen under a curse of negative thought, turning children into zombies, werewolves, and other lovable misfits. But hope isn’t lost. By growing hearts with your mind, channeling your love and empathy, you begin to heal each child one by one. As your mental warmth expands, the curse weakens, the children return to normal, and the village slowly comes back to life. Homes are repaired, laughter returns, and kindness wins. It’s a playful, heart-first adventure powered by the most human signal of all: your caring mind.

Mind Over Magic

In a magical world besieged by an evil Goblin King, you’re a hero with supernatural, telepathic abilities. Guided by a wise elven mentor, you’ll begin your training with small feats, levitating apples and learning to direct your focus. But as your abilities strengthen, so does your influence over the world. Move massive stones, open doors, command fire, and unlock the full force of your mind to stand against the evil Goblin King threatening this idyllic land. It’s a magical journey powered not by potions or swords, but by the strength of your concentration.

Mindforce Defenders

Aliens have returned to Area 51 to reclaim their stolen cloning technology, and only by mastering it yourself can you hold the line. With pure mental focus, you grow clones from alien eggs, assembling a squad of bizarre and lovable local misfits. From conspiracy theorists and cowboys to fancy-dress partygoers and the mascot from the chicken joint down the road, your psychic-grown defenders must hold the line against wave after wave of extraterrestrial attackers. It’s fast, chaotic, tactical and powered entirely by your brain.
