Brain Games - Left vs Right Reviews

I enjoy apps that keep my brain active and stimulated, and me busy when I want to pass the time. BrainGames does just that. So far, BrainGames is entertaining, and also gives my brain a bit of a workout. It’s not just another mind-numbing app. Of course, I enjoy those, too, but with a brain injury, I like to find things that fight the damage, that may stimulate new pathways, and help my focus and memory. It’s also an app my kids can play, which is always a bonus. On the downside, it only lets you play three games on the free edition before it shuts you down for the day. It says that you can watch a video to unlock another game, but so far that doesn’t seem to work. So I’m not sure you actually can. I may give the free trial a go to see if it’s actually worth paying the (IMO) steep price. I usually don’t spend that kind of money on an app, not when there are so many free to less-expensive ones out there. So, I also will keep looking at other apps. I wouldn’t mind unlocking everything for a low price, but $40 a year is a bit pricey to me. I’d rather spend my money elsewhere. I deducted one star for the price, and one for the fact I can’t get the video to work, so I can only play three games a day, which isn’t much. If it weren’t for that and I could play more, I would have given it 5 stars.

I have focusing problems that I go to the doctor for and this I have recommended to them to start using on other kids. I love this game and it really helps with focusing issues. I do have my eyes hurt a bit after playing but that is because they are working hard. I have found a few kinks but that will not take my five-star rating off of this great game. I had started looking for games to help my kids get better at this stuff but all the good ones cost money every week! When I saw this one I knew I might have found a hit. Well, seeing here about a month later, I was just right. BrainGames I recommend to millions of parents and hope their kids find the never ending happiness and challenge that has come to me and my kids!😄

This is an awesome app for cognitive strengthening that has a wide variety of games, many of which are unique to this Left vs Right app alone. In that aspect, I would rate Left vs Right a 5/5. The most frustrating element to actually utilizing the many challenging and fun brain exercise and game options, is the fact that you are given a mere 3 game challenges per day for training exercises and each game allows for only one round of play. Unless, of course you would like to purchase more than the measly 10coins each player starts off with to replay a game or use coins to play a different game. Honestly, if it wasn’t for the wide variety of different games BrainGames offers ... (eventually over many days) I would have Deleted it the moment that horribly petty, yet albeit cunningly clever money making scheme was abundantly clear.

Hello! BrainGames was just what I needed when I read the reviews and description. I downloaded it and selected what i wanted to work on. I just started yesterday and already loving it. But some games either have errors or I’m just to blind to see it. For example, I was on the little precision game with the exits. It was really hard to tell who is closer. It was like this for example:

🙂 EXIT 🙃

It made it too confusing along with the same problem with a few other mini games. Other than that, if you have a hard time focusing, patience, precision, and more, this is an excellent game to work on that.

I love BrainGames. I struggle daily with “word finding” almost every sentence I speak I forget one word or another, or it takes me longer than it should to move to the next word. After only 10 days using BrainGames I am noticing improvements in how quickly I am able to get my mind to come up with the word I’m looking for as well as decreasing the amount of times I forget words all together.

Could there please be an addition of dates added to the bar graph scores? I know it shows progress but seeing dates would be very helpful in figuring out which games I played today. Alternatively (or additionally) sorting the scores into the ones I played today, the highest scoring, lowest scoring etc would be beneficial in my opinion.

I've used it for about a year & truly enjoy it. I'm 68 & Alzheimer's run in family so is a great fear. This will help keep my mind sharp. Each level is more difficult making me think more. Highly recommend it to everyone. Fun & gratifying. Support group is very good at helping you if you have a problem with the program. I've had a couple of problems that were resolved quickly. My husbands & I both have an account & faithfully do our challenges each day. New challenges are added as you grow in your skill. I tell everyone that they should be playing Left vs Right. I also encourage them to pay for the lifetime version.

I’m currently doing some type of trial I'm thinking right now and so far I’m liking the different games that I’ve played. It’s a little past 6:00 AM right now and I’m running on 3.5 hours of sleep or less and the games are helping me become more alert. I've been a luminosity user for the longest and so far that company has been my go to for mobile brain games.
I've tried a few other but I was still content with them. But I can honestly say that this company has some great games as well. That can challenge your mind and improve you mental just like lumosity has done for me. I've been using their service for years and it help. I’m going to continue to experiment with this company to see what the games on here does for me. 👌🏾🙌🏾

BrainGames is exceptional in more ways than one. I enjoy playing, and, even though I have only had it for a few days, I have already improved. I do wish, however, that they would get rid of the vip membership. Not only is it overpriced, but annoying that over half of BrainGames is restricted from use. I understand having a vip option that unlocks special things, but not half of the games and stats.

In conclusion, its a good app, but has a few sticking points. This would have been a five star review if the vip membership concept was fixed, and maybe in the future I will change it.

There are games, then there’s this! This is SO much more than a game and there are no distracting ads or commercials , and no push to “buy” which is very refreshing! I LOVE the CHOICES that are available and each game is creative and offers challenge and growth opportunities the more you “play”. The levels seem to change WITH you which is an ingenious way to “push” you to WANT to do better each time and there’s so much variety, you’d have to WORK to get bored! This is DEFINITELY an app that will be at the top of my list for a long time to come! ABSOLUTELY worth a look!

Many games are too expensive but this one seems reasonable and the variety of puzzles is intriguing. If you want to go the VIP route you can pay weekly, monthly or yearly or watch ads for some of the puzzles. You can check on your progress at anytime, and switch between brain games and training.

I don’t know if reaction time is a factor but would think so. That means puzzles test time and accuracy. Make one mistake and that’s it for that level. I have a lot to explore what I like in games plus the daily “training” — good for the brain.

I’ve only just started but enjoy the challenges and think the fees are reasonable. I’ll probably get a VIP pass later but need to find out more, see if I truly like it. Brain puzzles are the rage right now and some are downright silly with many ads but this is serious yet still fun. Good to know where your thinking needs improvement.

I’ll come back and adjust rating if I feel it necessary.

So far this game has challenged me but hasn’t been so hard that it’s impossible to do. I can feel my brain working hard! The games are very enjoyable, and there is a wide variety. My only complaint is how you cannot see your progress/statistics unless you pay for a VIP membership. I do understand that the company has to keep going somehow, so I don’t really mind. Just letting you know. I do think it would be a good idea to let players set their own goals instead of making the goal every day automatically. Great educational game!

Love BrainGames. Definitely keeps the mind sharp. Gives it a great workout. I would like to thank the developers for making the free version satisfyingly affective as well as having the payed version available to those who can pay. You guys are doing a great service to humanity. App has been on my phone for a very long time. And will continue to be. Also, thank you for keeping the old version as an option. Really cool idea. Thank you so much with much love.

I am 22 years old from Las Vegas . I was a state employee working freeway construction when I got hit by a drunk driver while I was on foot and I suffered a traumatic brain injury. This is a very life changing experience as all of my basic cognitive abilities were pretty much destroyed, i have to repair my brain with an intensive therapy center here called CNS. This happened to me on Dec 19,2017 and I have recovered very well but I still have a few things to work on such as memory , speech and word usage. It’s a long process but I’m going to give this a shot as well to recover as best as I can . Will give an update review when I’m discharged from here

I looked up “Best Brain Games” and this game was the first one to pop up. I downloaded it and started playing it, and it really helped me and my sisters friend, who can’t really concentrate and be patient. Now she can wait for anything for over an hour, which is awesome. This game is motivating too, so you feel like you can really DO IT, which you totally can. The games are easy but not too easy, so you still have to think for most of them. I would totally recommend this game!

I really like this game! Every day you get a daily workout, just a gentle one. I like that it is a bit hard on your brain, but not too hard. I also think it was a good idea to make it where even if you’re daily workout is over, you can still play some games and train your brain. One thing I’m not really fond of though, is that you can’t train in all 6 categories at once unless your VIP. I know you don’t need to access them all at once, but I would kind of like to. Besides that, I really like this game. It really does help train your brain! I highly recommend it.

This game can help you by teaching you academics, and a lot of other fun stuff. For example strengthening your memory or your focus. This game can make learning fun in lots of ways too. This game also asks you what you would like to learn or what games are your favorite and help you learn the best way possible for you. And that is what really matters. Some people might be interested in something else than their friend. Or it might be easier for someone to learn one way and another person to learn the other way.

This game is good but some things are too hard and then people get mad and don’t want to play anymore and sometimes they or too easy and then when you’re playing them it’s just a waste of time. My opinion is that this game is just right and it starts you off at the level that it thinks that you are going to start at and then from there it gives you easier things or is it just gets harder based on how good you’re doing. Overall this game is helping and it is REALLY FUN.

I loved this game so much it makes learning so fun if you are trying to find a brain game that’s fun this is the one but one thing developers is that why does it cost money to play more brain games after the session I mean like don’t you want us to train are brain. Pulse one time I wanted to keep playing but I ran out of money so do you like bot what us to become really smart lol😆😁😁😆 but I’m still serious can you please change it so that way you can just keep on playing;)otherwise love your game👍👍👍

Great game… First off I like that it’s not asking for money before even knowing if I like the game. 2nd it’s not too hard or too easy. 3rd. I’m hoping these games will improve my skills because I’m forgetting things easily, unable to focus more, or remember the spelling of peoples names (work) remembering people, places, names. memories, math etc. If I can’t stay focused I may get in a car accident or remember where I am or how to get too other places like my grandmother

I’ve just finalized making my account in BrainGames to be able to start playing the games. I just finished the first round of workouts/practices to have a beginning score to start from. All games seem to work how they should work. Having no problems and very self- controlled and managed to be able to participate while alone. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to build and work on my left-Right Brain Skills.

Many games are too expensive but this one seems reasonable and the variety of puzzles is intriguing. If you want to go the VIP route you can pay weekly, monthly or yearly or watch ads for some of the puzzles. You can check on your progress at anytime, and switch between brain games and training.

I’m 68 years old and I wanted an app to let me exercise my brain. I’ve heard so many times that age affects the brain and mind as much as the body. And activities that make you concentrate and use all your cognitive skills can help neural pathways and connections strong and healthy. I feel like a 35 year old mentally and I want to keep my mind alert and young as long as possible. I am using Left vs Right as a part of my wellness routine each day and really having a lot of fun!

This is a pretty good app. All the games are simple and easy to understand. It’s not too hard on your brain, which I like. It’s only a gentle training, so you don’t have to work really hard. A little every day is better than a whole bunch of things all at once. BrainGames displays that. Only thing though, you need VIP to access all 6 categories at the same time. BUT it’s not like you need VIP for everything. You get to be tested in every category. You just have to wait the next day.

Overall, really great. Highly recommend it.

I am 28 and have hit my head twice in the past four months. I was knocked unconscious with a concussion both times. I am just now starting to get back into using my phone regularly and have not been cleared for work. BrainGames is just what I needed in addition to the physical therapy I am receiving. If your sensitive to screen light, go to your settings and dim the screen so you can enjoy exercising your brain!

So I just got this game but I love it. I watch the brain games show and it is my favorite. One problem is the layout of the game is confusing. When I am trying to play flexibility but I end up in memory. Also I wish you didn’t have to log in to save your progress in this game. Please keep these ideas in mind for the next update, but as I have said before this game is great and I would recommend BrainGames to anyone and everyone looking to play along and challenge their brain.

When I first downloaded BrainGames the only thing I could think was that it would be outrageously expensive where you would have to pay something absurd like $40 a month. But, as I have discovered, most of BrainGames is completely free! You can buy exclusive features called Premium but it’s a mere $10 for LIFE. I highly recommend this phenomenal little app for the busy-minded individuals who wish to maintain a sharp IQ.

I love the face that there are lots of games that have not just one but up to 3 benefits. There are many games even if you don’t have a VIP Membership. That’s another thing even though their are a lot of games for non VIP Member I feel as if you should have access to all games, but other than that this is a very good game to pass by time but it also strengthens your mind. Last, there are lots of ads but they don’t pop up on the screen and it’s an option to see the ad, very smart.

BrainGames is amazing! I’ve had BrainGames for a couple of weeks and I’ve actually noticed real differences in my life. I‘ve been able to remember names better and my focus has been significantly better. There are games that are VIP and you have to pay for, but there are still plenty of other games. Also you can often watch a video to unlock the VIP games. So overall this is a great, free, and helpful app.
