Hey, I'm Sean 👋
I make the GlyphVerse: a growing set of small, calm puzzle games for daily brain training. Each one is its own room, with its own light, sound and win. I'm based in Europe, and I built this because I wanted something I'd actually use myself, with my morning coffee.
The ideaReps for the mind
I train in the gym most days. I read a lot (ancient history is a rabbit hole I keep falling into). And I've always believed the mind needs reps just like the body does: a few minutes of focused problem-solving each day, done consistently, beats an occasional marathon.
Most "brain training" apps felt bloated to me. Too many notifications, too much gamification, too many upsells. I just wanted a clean puzzle that says what it is and gets out of the way. So I made NumberGlyph for myself, then MemoryGlyph, then FocusGlyph, and it grew from there.

NewFresh from the workshop
A daily skyscrapers puzzle. Raise one tower of every height so the edge clues count what you can see.
Launches, guides and the odd essay live on the blog.
Beyond the gamesA programme, not a pile
Think of it like a gym programme for your brain: structured, progressive, and actually doable in a few minutes a day.
SupportKeep the lights on
Everything here is free to play, with no paywalls and no premium tiers. If you're enjoying it and want to help keep it running (and growing), you can buy me a coffee on Ko-fi. No pressure. The games stay free either way.
