The average person burns 4+ hours a day on their phone — years of your life, spent looking down. While you scroll, your dreams wait.
How you beat him
Define the standard you're meant to hold — then let Archnemesis hold you to it, every single day.
Distractions, shielded by your Archnemesis
Run a focus session or set a schedule and the apps pulling you under get shielded. Reach for one anyway and you don't meet a grey "limit reached" — you meet your Archnemesis: "Your Archnemesis chose differently," next to the habits you still haven't done. Flip on the Distraction Watchdog and 30 minutes of scrolling locks the app until midnight.
Focus sessions that build something
Start a session, shield the noise, and do the work. Every minute earns XP and stacks toward Deep Work, Monk Mode and Hyperfocus. The point was never less screen time for its own sake — it's more of the deep work that actually moves you.
Habits, streaks, and a rank you climb
Keep your daily habits, hold the streak, and earn XP toward your rank — from E all the way to S. Habits, focus sessions, journaling and real-world steps all count, so a single off day doesn't have to break the chain.
A nemesis that won't let you coast
Every day your Archnemesis reads your performance and tells you the truth — a streak milestone, a half-effort day, or a zero. Slip into a distraction and the reminders name your own goal back to you: "Remember who this is for."
Collect the accolades
48 accolades across 8 paths — steps, focus, streaks, comebacks and more. Crystalline proof of the work, earned from your First Strike all the way to Conqueror.
















































































What early testers say
Focus reclaimed, streaks kept, nemeses beaten — from the people putting Archnemesis through its paces.
Other blockers throw up a grey 'time's up' screen you swipe past. This one shows my Archnemesis and the habits I skipped today. I actually close the app.
I'm chasing Rank A like it's a leaderboard. Turns out the leaderboard is just me, finally getting my act together.
Focus sessions with the apps shielded got me through finals — two hours of real deep work before I'd normally even start.

Missed my habits one day but a focus session kept the streak alive. Small thing, but it's why I'm still going on day 70.
Turned on the Distraction Watchdog. Thirty minutes on Reddit and it locks for the rest of the day — no negotiating with myself. Exactly what I needed.
The daily readout doesn't flatter you. 'Half-effort day, and you know it.' Hard to argue with your own stats.

Open TikTok and it hits me with my own words — 'remember who this is for.' Annoyingly effective.
Hit 100 hours of focus time last month and unlocked Hyperfocus. Never thought a focus stat would feel like a trophy.
It reframes everything as you versus the best version of you. Lost most days at first. Now I beat him more often than not.
