FeelPal - A Little Gameboy Game About How You Feel
FeelPal
Sometimes you know that something feels wrong, but finding the right words is harder than expected.
FeelPal is a cute Game Boy-style journey through five symbolic worlds. Guide Froggy along quiet paths, meet the animals who live there, and answer their questions honestly. Each area explores a different aspect of mental well-being.
The experience is inspired by established psychological screening tools, transformed into a small, approachable adventure for people who may be curious about themselves, uncertain about asking for help, or simply looking for a calmer way to begin reflecting on what they feel.
There are no right or wrong answers. Take your time, explore each path, and let the animals help you find words for what may be difficult to explain.
Features
- Five distinctive mazes to explore
- 42 questions exploring common emotional, attentional, and sensory experiences
- Cute pixel-art presentation inspired by retro handheld games
- Results explained in clear, accessible language

- Resources for seeking support
If you enjoy FeelPal and want a physical version, a real cartridge edition is also available on our website for compatible Game Boy hardware.
FeelPal does not provide diagnoses, clinical results, or medical advice. It is designed as a small reflective experience you can return to whenever you feel like checking in with yourself.
