Infinity Games launches a pocket sanctuary for relaxation to help manage the stresses ahead of the holiday season and beyond
Lisbon, Portugal – December 5th, 2024 — Infinity Games, the Portuguese mobile game developer and member of the eGames Lab consortium, has today announced the global launch of Chill, its relaxation companion on iOS and Android. Experts at developing and publishing mobile games with relaxing gameplay and minimalistic aesthetics, Infinity Games is harnessing its 8 years of expertise to develop an all-in-one tool designed to help users manage stress, improve focus, and encourage relaxation through a variety of proven techniques combined with engaging interactivity.
Chill takes a haptic and sound-heavy approach to interactivity, utilising multiple senses to encourage a mindful and relaxing state of mind during busy or stressful moments. Soothing soundscapes, engaging ambiences, original compositions, and gentle mini-games help users unwind and focus, making it the ideal pocket sanctuary for navigating the challenges of modern-day life.
Chill learns each user’s behaviour over time and provides daily recommendations of gentle mini-games, meditation, breathing exercises, or sleep casts for each individual’s preferences. This tailored approach and daily activity will contribute to a mental health score, which users can journal daily within the app to keep track of their thoughts and moods.
Robson Siebel, Head of Design at Infinity Games, commented: “Our vision was to create an app that truly responds to the need for relaxation in our busy, modern lives. We wanted to go beyond typical stress relief tools by crafting a deeply personalized experience with features that adapt to each user’s mood, routines, and relaxation preferences. From interactive tactile toys to customizable soundscapes and mindfulness games, Chill is a sanctuary in your pocket. By combining proven techniques with engaging interactivity, we’re offering users a daily escape that feels natural, soothing, and truly impactful.”
To understand Chill’s full capability and potential, Infinity Games is working with PhD students from the largest scientific research group in the videogames industry in Portugal; the Instituto Superior Técnico at the University of Lisbon and the University of Madeira. As a vital part of eGamesLab, the PhD student-led study aims to explore the app’s ability to reduce stress and improve mental well-being for different populations around the world.
André Miraldo, Head of Marketing at Infinity Games, added: “We’re bringing bits of various worlds together, drawing on our expertise from previous games in minimalistic and relaxing elements. Our background in game development is only half of what makes Chill the go-to pocket sanctuary, so it is vital that we truly understand and offer the best product we can to those who need it most.”
