Some say they’re good while others are doubtful . I’ve opened accounts with several, but only paid for one ,Cognifit .
I think the games are better on Cognifit . However the scoring system can produce widely changing cognitive domain scores,up or down, within a very few training sessions, that don’t make sense .
There is even some conjecture that board games like chess don’t improve anything other than making you a better chess player. I only play Sudoku but not sure if I’ve noticed any changes other than that I’m a faster solver.
I play a lot of FPS games. I’m not sure it helps or only contributes to distorting how I see the world.
I was part of two studies testing the efficacy of brain training games. Shortly after starting my first study, I stopped having positive symptoms. They haven’t come back in three years. Could be coincidence. Could be that the games helped.
I will also say that I know a few others here who were in the study, and they seem to be doing better too.
For me I want a realistic estimation of how I’m doing . Unfortunately Cognifit doesn’t do that .
I just play Sudoku and read. I am boring like that.
