About this game

Exercise Your Brain! This is the unlimited, ad-free, version of the hit brain training app. Mind Games is a great collection of games based in part on principles derived from cognitive tasks to help you practice different mental skills. This app includes all of Mindware’s brain exercising games. All games include your score history and graphs of your progress. The main app shows a summary of your best games and today’s scores on all games. Using some principles of standardized testing, your scores are also converted to a comparison scale so that you can see where you need work and excel. The Training Center selects games for you to play in order to maximize your progress and enjoyment.

Mind Games incorporates Mindfulness exercises. Previous research has shown that Mindfulness may provide improvements in focus, working memory, and mental flexibility for some. Research indicates that there may also be emotional benefits of Mindfulness. The app provides instruction on how to use Mindfulness during game play and in your life. Other activities are recommended that previous research suggests may help cognition for some (such as aerobic exercise). You may also learn new memory strategies. No scientific research has yet been conducted to determine if the app’s particular implementation of Mindfulness and brain training games has cognitive benefits. At a minimum you can have fun challenging your mind with our games, learning a new meditation practice, learning about strategies that may enhance your retention of information, and gaining knowledge in the knowledge-based activities.

Ratings and reviews

I like this game. It is varied and challenging. The new games are a great addition, keeping the player challenged as well as entertained. It is a much better choice than some of the other games. For the quality and quantity provided at such a low cost it is well worth purchasing. After years playing these games I am still awestruck at the quality and variety of its many features. It never grows old, which is a perfect goal for a brain game.

I love how you can play the game you like the most alone by itself, or go into training mode and they shuffle all the games you play. It gives you the percentile you're in for your age, it keeps track of your progress which I think is pretty neat! That way I know how far I have come from when I started. And there is Soo many selections of games!! It's crazy that you could be having so much fun while exercising your brain and helping yourself in the long run!! I would highly recommend this game!

I highly doubt the validity of these "tests." For example, there is a visual tracking cup game, but one of the cups (the one with the ball under it) moves around much more than the other two, making it easy to find every time. The word-based games have several grammatical and spelling errors. Etc. So, basically, treat this app as a gimmick and not a way to "train" your brain to do anything.
