Draft a calming wind-down routine from a hand of habit cards, bank enough rest to cross the sleep threshold before your time budget runs out.
Was this fun?
How to play
You're dealt a hand of habit cards, each with rest, arousal and time values. Build a routine that nets enough rest to clear the night's threshold without busting the minute budget, and without stacking too many arousing late-night habits. Then go to sleep to score the night.
Tap habit cards to add or remove them from your routine
Net rest must reach the threshold within the time budget
Calming habits bank rest; arousing ones work against you
Daily is a shared night; Practice deals a new hand
Controls
Desktop: click cards to build the routine, then 'Go to Sleep' or press Enter (N for a new night)
Phone & tablet: tap cards, then tap 'Go to Sleep'
Tips & strategy
Lean into calming habits and cut the arousing ones to clear the threshold
Watch the time budget, a routine that's too long means the clock runs out
A tidy routine that clears early scores a bonus, so don't over-stack cards
