1. ReLIFE Habits
Rise, fall, and be reborn. In ReLIFE, life is a towering challenge of 100 floors filled with obstacles, monsters, and powerful bosses designed to test your discipline and willpower. Players take on personalized quests such as daily exercise routines, mindfulness challenges, skill-building tasks, or creative pursuits.

- Timed Events: Limited-time quests where players earn bonus rewards for completing tasks within a deadline.
- Surprise Mobs: Random obstacles appear, such as unexpected errands or distractions, that must be dealt with creatively.
Each quest completed brings XP, rewards, and progress to ascend the tower. But beware—slacking off or marking tasks as done without actually doing them may summon punishments, like resetting your progress for the day or spawning formidable bosses.
