ModernSam: LVL up your life

As my world gets busier it’s easy to be overwhelmed. But I can break down even the “simplest” task into 100 sub tasks if I need to and that makes it so much more manageable. I love the story, the meditations are wonderful and I enjoy the gaming aspect as well. It really is exactly what I needed to stay focused and on task. I don’t know how to thank Sam but he really has made life that much easier. Coming back weeks later to say I’m still using and enjoying the app. It helps me keep track of specifics, while allowing me to view things as a broader perspective too. I’m always finding new ways to incorporate it and it has helped me start clearing clutter from my home as well as keep it cleaner in general.

This app is literally life changing! I’m able to feel almost “normal” as some people who don’t have ADHD would say. I don’t feel pressured to complete tasks or get penalized for not doing them. Doing the little hunts is probably my favorite as I want to unlock all of the cards!! Thank you so much to the team who created this app! 💚

I feel like this is a fairly new app, since there’s a lot of features that can be built on. This has a TON of potential and I can’t wait to see where it goes, because I already love what’s there! I especially love the spoken aspect of this app; I can tell a lot of work was put into the meditations, affirmations, episodes, and everything in general. I’m not at a place where I can monetarily support the app’s development, but I definitely would if I could. This is a really fantastic app and anyone that ends up reading this should give it a try!! Thanks to the devs for the work that was put into this, and I hope to see more <3

This game was a bit interesting at first, but now I can see the hype! Storyline, make your own task goals, meditations, and all role playing game based. It makes my goals more interesting and helps me to keep my thoughts together. I get energy to fight monsters and collect the cards of ones I defeat. The developers are always asking for feedback and willing to work with you when there’s an issue. Totally worth getting, 100%. I’m also really starting to like the update of making my own to do lists.

This app works in ways that so many others haven’t for me. With my AuDHD, follow through is something I always struggle to do. Keeping track of my daily todo list becomes easier with the AI task breakdown. The illustrations are also really cool.

Do I really enjoy doing boring tasks? No. Do they become less abhorrent because there are pretty shiny rewards that allow me to kill monsters? Absolutely. Aside from the regular dopamine hits, I really like how it provides self care ideas for each day and reflections/ meditations that I get to pick based on my capacity that day. The story portion is fun, and they should be adding more which will be great too. In short, it’s been great way to make mundane tasks less obnoxious, supplement my dysfunctioning executive function, fit in some self care, and mostly keep me on track.

The little cards are so motivating for me for some reason, like collecting Pokemon cards. And I love the tasks and how they give you energy. And the VOICES ARE SO GOOD!!!! It makes an intriguing story and makes doing tasks fun. ALSO I love the meditation and mindfulness audios. I never had an interest in those things until this app. It’s so nice to do that right before bed. THIS IS SO HELPFUL IN GAMIFYING MY TASKS! PLEASE CONTINUE TO WORK ON IT!

The game is good

I think this app has potential. For one thing, I love the mini meditations/affirmations, and I think they’re really well done! But the real highlight for me is the daily quests feature. Each day you can roll to choose 4 daily quests, where you are given a random selection of tasks to choose from. Each completed task earns you a chance to hunt a monster and gain rewards. Except there’s nothing to actually DO with the rewards. This is one of my big issues with the app. It feels half finished…like a beta build and not a full release. And perhaps most disappointing, there have been no major changes or additions since it came out at the end of last year. I’ve been holding off writing this review until it felt a bit more complete, but that doesn’t seem like it’s going to happen any time soon. As such, I can only give it 3 stars. I’d probably give it 2.5 if I could give half stars, but I rounded up because I DO think the potential is there! This could be a great app down the road! It’s just not there yet.

I’ve done a fair share of self-care apps in my time and none have made me feel as engaged as this one. The story is immersive and actively encourages you to be active during listening. Not only do I feel seen and heard, but I feel encouraged. And with a cycling set of tasks every day this app has helped me become way more productive. The app is still in development but I have high hopes!
