A social game for staying off your phone with friends

Campy turns presence into a game.

When you’re out with friends, everyone opens the app, places a small bet with in-app coins, and starts a session. The first person to leave the app loses their coins to everyone else.

Put the phone down — or pay up.

I was tired of not having deeper connections with my friends and not being present when I'm with family and friends. Creating memorable experiences has become difficult.

What if staying present had a playful cost to breaking it?

Campy is an experiment to see if a lightweight social game can change behavior without guilt, lectures, or tracking.

How it would work

  1. Open Campy together (same room)
  2. Everyone places a bet using in-app coins
  3. Start a session over Bluetooth (no internet)
  4. First person to leave the app loses their coins to the group

That’s it.
