It was founded by one the leading neuroscientists in the world, actually, named Michael Merzenich. I paid for BrainHQ’s service last year and found it to be beneficial to my own cognition. Their rival website, BrainHQ (Posit Science) has many articles citing studies on their website showing improvements in cognition. I was not aware that Luminosity was fined that much money last year. The company raised $400,000 in capital from angel investors in 2007, a Series A of $3 million from Harrison Metal Capital, FirstMark Capital and Norwest Venture Partners in 2008, a Series C o. launched in 2007 and, as of January 2015, has 70 million members. Lumos Labs was founded in 2005 by Kunal Sarkar, Michael Scanlon, and David Drescher. Lumosity is an online program consisting of games claiming to improve memory, attention, flexibility, speed of processing, and problem solving. So for the present I now use only the automated bridge games - with endless Undo - to practice my bridge memory. Last year’s massive $2 million fine on Lumosity for false advertising has shaken my faith in memory games. So I’m wondering if you have any links relating to memory improvement caused by these games? But I distrust my own unsourced theories as much as I distrust other people’s unsourced theories. I have a theory that the game might help my card memorization at bridge. So you need to memorize many of the face-down cards. That’s the game where you turn over a card, then match it with an identical, previously turned-over card. I’m specifically interested in the game which is known as “Concentration” or “Memory”. I’m working my way through the list in sequence. List of all the free online memory games on this site I’ve tried it a little bit, but haven’t really applied memory systems to the games yet. Let me know if you people have any success applying mnemonic memory techniques to these games. I’m particularly addicted to the games on that website called “Mahjong Alchemy” and “Chinese Mahjong”, they are solitaire versions of the game. There are lots more on that website, if you just click on the “269 Free Brain Games” on the top of their webpage. The website below has lots of fun ones, including Mahjong tile games, and memory games that I’ve played a lot, such as Glitter Memory, Flipped out, Memory Test, Pattern Memory, and Mario Memory. I am just providing my fellow brain training athletes with some fun stuff for play. Have fun and tell me what you think!ĭisclaimer:I have no affiliation with any of these websites, and do not make any money from them. I’ve personally played many of the games on these websites, many, many times. Just thought I’d post a whole bunch of free brain-training websites that I wrote down in my notebook over the past two years.
