About Time Manager

Time Manager presents the challenge of scheduling a complete 24-hour day with realistic time allocations for sleep, meals, exercise, study, social time, and leisure — with the goal of achieving health, academic, and wellbeing targets simultaneously. The game models the genuine time trade-offs that health researchers and productivity scientists study: adequate sleep dramatically improves learning and physical performance, but requires reducing time for other activities. Players who complete Time Manager's challenges report more awareness of how they actually spend their time versus how they intend to, an outcome that aligns with research on the effectiveness of time-tracking interventions for behavioral change.
