Slip Slidin’ Away…

We are releasing yet another new game…one that targets spatial orientation and develops your sense of direction by requiring you to guide a hungry penguin to a snack. Watch out, though — he’s on ice and things can get slippery, causing your penguin to become disoriented if you are not careful!

Please find our new game here http://games.lumosity.com/penguin_panic.html and, as always, let us know what you think.

We’re on a roll! Following the debut of Name Tag last month, we are now ready to release Top Chimp, a brain game that sharpens visual attention and trains working memory. We think it’s more fun than a barrel of…well, monkeys, but would love to have your feedback before the game becomes part of the regular set of brain exercises. Please find the game here http://games.lumosity.com/top_chimp.html and send any suggestions to games@lumosity.com.
