Pokémon Sleep, the highly anticipated mobile game that combines the addictive nature of Pokémon catching with the importance of a good night’s sleep, has finally been released on iOS and Android after four years since its announcement. Developed by Select Button with assistance from Niantic, the creators of Pokémon GO, this game aims to gamify your sleep and make it more enjoyable.
Unlike Pokémon GO, Pokémon Sleep does not have any augmented reality (AR) features. However, it offers a unique concept that allows players to record various ways in which Pokémon sleep. Each day, players can check what Pokémon have gathered around a sleeping Snorlax and add their sleep details to their Sleep Style Pokédex. The better the sleep, the more Pokémon you’ll collect.
But Pokémon Sleep is more than just a sleep tracker with a Pokémon theme. It incorporates various features that turn the experience into a fully-fledged game. Players can earn a Sleep Score based on their sleep quality, which can then be used to purchase snacks and items for their Pokémon. On top of that, the app goes beyond tracking sleep patterns and also records any loud noises during the night, such as farts or a car alarm going off outside.
To ensure accurate sleep tracking, players are required to place their phones face down on their mattresses while they sleep. However, for those who prefer not to have their phones on their mattresses, there is the option of purchasing the Pokémon GO Plus + accessory. Priced at $54.99, this device can track sleep patterns in a similar way and offers additional bonuses for Pokémon GO players.
Pokémon Sleep is not just a health tool but a fully immersive game that revolves around the concept of sleep. The idea of seeing how your favorite Pokémon spend their restful hours adds an exciting aspect to the game, which may even motivate players to go to bed earlier.
With its unique concept and integration of Pokémon GO elements, Pokémon Sleep has finally arrived to fulfill your dream of combining catching Pokémon with tracking your sleep. So, if you’ve ever wanted to watch small creatures snooze while monitoring your own sleep patterns, this game is perfect for you. Download Pokémon Sleep now and embark on a new gaming experience that combines Pokémon and quality sleep like never before.
