About this game

Dual NBack – Memory Training & Brain Game

Dual NBack is a fun and challenging brain game designed to improve working memory, focus and mental performance.

Unlike simple brain games, Dual N-back is based on a scientifically studied memory training method that pushes your cognitive limits and adapts as you improve. Set goals, get reminders, and climb the global leaderboards as you sharpen your mind!

What Is Dual NBack?

Dual NBack is an advanced memory training game where you track simultaneously both:
• Visual positions
• Audio letters

Research suggests that consistent play may enhance your working memory—the ability to hold and process information briefly—and also boost short-term recall.

How to Play

Your task is to detect when the current stimulus matches what appeared N steps earlier.

Start at Level N=2 and train your brain to remember patterns from multiple steps back.

If the current position or sound matches what was shown N turns ago, tap the corresponding button.

As your performance improves, the difficulty increases automatically — making every session both challenging and rewarding.

You can also manually adjust:
• N level
• Speed interval
• Session length

Train at your own pace and build real cognitive endurance.

it's a very good app I think it's definitely helped me, I've used it for like about 6 months and I've noticed it's helped me focus more than anything else, and has helped me with math and remembering steps more effectively. ignore the negative studies that say this game doesn't work, if you keep training consistently you'll see progress (:

- Button's Yellow feedback and Green feedback are practically indistinguishable. - No option to first separately train N2 visual and then N2 sound as easier way to get into full dual N2back (dual N1back isn't adequate to prepare for dual N2back). - "Miss" and "Incorrect" on Score screen should be swapped (if you don't press when you should, aka miss one, it currently counts as "Incorrect") - Colors of feedback (Red and Yellow) should be probably swapped too.

Hi, thanks for the detailed feedback. This is super helpful! 🙏 We hear you on the color clarity, scoring labels, and training flow (separate N2 practice). These are great points and we’ll review them as we improve the experience. If you have more ideas, feel free to reach us at eigomonogatari@frecre.com — we’d love to hear! Thanks for the support!

I like this one because it feels more accurate to science, but it's so fast for me as a noobie. It works as intended though!
