How can games improve brain health?

Structured game-based exercises can provide repeated practice of core cognitive skills such as attention, processing speed, and working memory. With consistent short sessions, players may notice improvements in focus and mental agility.

Do these games prevent Alzheimer’s disease?

No game can prevent or treat Alzheimer’s. However, cognitively stimulating activities are associated with building cognitive reserve, which may help the brain cope better with age-related changes. Brain Boosts is intended as a wellness tool, not a medical device.

How long should I train?

Most players benefit from 5–10 minute sessions, 3–5 times per week. Consistency is more important than duration. Increase difficulty gradually and focus on accuracy first, speed second.

Game‑based training offers immediate feedback, clear goals, and progressive challenge — elements known to boost engagement and learning. Short, frequent sessions help convert practice into lasting skill.

Alzheimer’s & cognitive reserve

While no app can prevent or treat Alzheimer’s disease, cognitively stimulating activities across the lifespan are associated with stronger cognitive reserve — the brain’s ability to adapt to change. Brain Boosts contributes to a cognitively active lifestyle alongside sleep, exercise, nutrition, and social connection.

How to get the most out of training

Keep it short and frequent: 5–10 minutes, 3–5× per week
Prioritize accuracy first, then increase speed gradually
Progressive difficulty: move up when you reach consistent scores
Mix modes: alternate math, memory, and N‑Back for balance
