Science of Mental Breaks
Short, targeted mental breaks have been shown to improve cognitive function and productivity. Here's how our games help refresh your brain:
Attention Restoration
The directed attention required by our games helps reset cognitive resources that become depleted during focused work sessions.
Dopamine Release
The achievement-based gameplay triggers mild dopamine release, improving mood and motivation for returning to work tasks.
Context Switching
Engaging in a completely different task allows your subconscious to continue processing work problems in the background.
