Small steps on days when depression leaves you with little energy
Depression can come with periods when even small everyday actions feel difficult. Lifegame doesn't expect the same pace every day: you can first choose how much energy you have, then get a few manageable steps that fit that level.
Completing your main steps earns in-game energy that you can use to gradually bring a virtual world to life.
Why this format may feel easier to use
- Start with the energy you have
- No daily streak to protect
- No penalties for missed days
- Add your own small steps
