About this game

Mightier helps children (ages 6 - 14) who struggle with their emotions. This includes kids who have a tough time with tantrums, feelings of frustration, anxiety, or even a diagnosis like ADHD.

Our program was developed by clinicians from Boston Children’s Hospital and Harvard Medical School and is designed to create a fun and engaging way for kids to practice emotional regulation through play….and become Mightier!

Players wear a heart rate monitor while they play, which allows them to see their emotions and connect with them directly. As they play, your child reacts to their heart rate. As their heart rates go up, the game gets harder to play and they practice how to bring their heart rate down (take a pause) in order to earn rewards in the games. Over time and with routine practice/play, this creates “Mightier moments” where your child breathes, pauses, or uses one of their practiced cool down strategies automatically when facing real world challenges.

Mightier includes:

A WORLD OF GAMES
Over 25 games on the platform and 6 worlds to conquer, so your child will never get bored!

THE GIZMO
Your child’s visual representation of their heart rate. This will allow them to see their emotions and connect with them directly. Gizmo will also teach your child emotional management skills when they find themselves in extreme duress.

LAVALINGS
Collectable creatures that represent big emotions. These will help your child connect with their range of emotions in a fun, new way.

PLUS…..for Parents
● An online hub to access a dashboard of your child’s progress
● Customer support from licensed clinicians
● Tools and resources to help navigate your Mightier parenting journey.

Ratings and reviews

this had a lot of potential, and my son did enjoy the game and was engaged but it's hard to justify $40/mo for a game. it should be no more than $5-$10 tops. Edit: My son has been asking for his calming tablet since I canceled the subscription Im dissapointed in how much you feel you can charge for this product on a monthly basis. you've set parents up to let down their kids that can't afford it. He just told me he was going to ask santa for it cause I can't afford it. Thanks alot!

I only have had to recharge the heart monitor 3 times so far, and now the charger won't charge. It appears that one of the prongs is compressed in and will not retract back out. I am assuming this is the issue. I contacted customer service to see if I can get a replacement, especially since it hasn't even been 30 days. The rep was friendly, but i was told that they could not replace it because I must have damaged it after delivery. It is not damaged, it is a manufacturer defect. I am not happy!

I have one child with a formal diagnosis, and one without. They also each have very different emotional needs–Mightier works so well for both of them! We have now been using Mightier for two solid months. While it took us a bit to get in the groove of regular use, my kids now both LOVE Mightier and beg to play it! I am encouraged to see their progression with the games and how much more they now understand their capacity to control and regulate their progression via their heartrate. We truly love this app--such a win!
