Cognido: A University Project Turned Brain-Training Hit
Cognido, a fast-paced multiplayer brain-training game, is the brainchild of university student David Schreiber. This solo project boasts over 40,000 downloads, defying the typical fate of many university projects. Offering quick matches against friends and strangers, Cognido presents a range of challenges, from simple math to trivia and beyond.
The game's rapid-fire gameplay sets it apart. While not as comforting as the familiar Doctor Kawashima's Brain Training, Cognido's unique squid-like mascot, Nido, adds a quirky charm. The game offers both free and premium options, with a subscription unlocking the full Cognido experience. A free trial is available for those wanting to test the waters.
