Meet Betwixt, the fantasy text-based game designed to help you master your thoughts and emotions, improve your mental health, relieve stress and anxiety, and find clarity, confidence and calm.
"Captivating. Betwixt is a new direction in mental health."
- Ben Marshall, ex UK government health adviser
Betwixt combines play, storytelling and sound to guide you on an epic journey deep into the recesses of your own mind, making self-care feel like an adventure, rather than a chore.
You can think of it as gamified therapy, a relaxing game for stress or an interactive mood journal, but none of these fully capture the immersive self-exploration experience of Betwixt.

Travel through the dreamlike world of the In-Between, solve its secrets and unravel the mysteries of your mind.
Betwixt’s enchanting story has been designed to empower you to delve into the depths of your psyche and discover the magic of truly, deeply understanding who you are. The greatest journey really is the journey in.

Money meets DnD lite
It’s a texting app that forces you to make decisions they think would be correct in a basic setting. Maybe it will help you and if it does that’s great. However it’s just another money hungry app that preys on the most vulnerable, those that are struggling. The creators should feel ashamed of themselves, especially if they are medically licensed. Makes me think less of therapists that call themselves “professionals”.
So helpful!
I have tried so many apps for ADHD and I never log in. I woke up today and wanted to see what the next dream was. Its so engaging but subtle. Im so excited bc i feel like this will really help me.
Curious
This is so provocative, interesting. So far I love the journey
Game-Changer
This app is fantastic. I struggle with anxiety/ptsd/adhd and this app has helped calm me and get out of my head. I showed my girlfriend who works as a healthcare apc and she’s even been recommending it to her patients. I love that the Betwixed team/developers genuinely care about people too. I’m thankful to have read a mention of ithis app in a forum and took the time to check it out. It’s truly something special.
Surprising and helpful…
It allows a person to explore and discover their in-depth emotions & thoughts through a creative, storytelling process. I wish it was free though…
Love
Truly beautiful. What a lovely way to meditate and spend time with myself. Thank you for this gift.
Interesting
I am just exploring the free trial sections. I’m interested to see more
Choose my own adventure
It’s a come to life exploration of your own mind, the sounds the story. It is so en grossing. I am always sad when each chapter ends. I think they’re really on something here.
Amazing!
I absolutely love this app. I was only able to do the 1st chapter of “the in between” which I didn’t realize how much I needed that perspective, and I was looking forward to go to the next chapter.
Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to go to the others because it requires a one time payment that I don’t have. I wish there was a way to continue on with the chapters somehow for the ones who don’t have the money.
That’s the only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5.
Otherwise I highly suggest getting this app! You won’t regret it.
No option to skip a question
I started the game and it was cool. It was different than most games, and I felt as if I were traveling into a different dimension. The game feels like an escape from your own reality, into a place where you can be anyone you want to be. But then, it got to a part where it wanted to know my pronouns. I don’t want to answer that and it gave me no option to skip. Not everyone wants to have “pronouns”.
