Training program overview

The Mastermind Cognitive Training program consists of training sessions delivered within a virtual reality (VR) environment or on your Android or Apple tablet

.
A "session" is a training period for a day combining eye exercises and training games; all games assigned to the training session need to be completed to advance to the next day’s training session. Each session will be pre-loaded with that day’s assigned training; you will not need to worry about choosing the correct games to play to complete the session, as our program will advance you seamlessly between games within each session. All training sessions start with eye exercises and are followed by the assigned training games for the day. 

 

EYE EXERCISES
You’ll start with three (3) eye exercises each day you train. Each exercise has individual instructions provided to you when you access each activity. 

 

TRAINING GAMES

The training games consist of a mix of 39 games within the VR platform and 15 games within the tablet platform. 

  1. 14 training games in VR and 6 training games on the tablets center around multiple-object tracking, and they utilize paddles as the primary hand control for VR and tapping for tablets. At the end of each training game, you will play against the Boss, the game nemesis, in a fun bonus round.
  2. 12 training games in VR and 4 training games on the tablets utilize shooters as the primary hand control for VR and tapping for tablets. All of these games center around anticipation and working memory. In these games, the Boss appears intermittently to serve as a distractor.
  3. 12 training games in VR and 4 training games on the tablets utilize gloves as the primary hand control to punch targets for VR and tapping targets for tablets. All of these games center around working memory, cueing, and attention. 
  4. RhythmIQ is a training game that is based on rhythm and timing. Drumsticks serve as hand controls for this game in VR while the tablets will use tapping; this training game focuses on strengthening visual tracking abilities. 

     

For all of the exercises and training games, if you need to pause (or are forced to disconnect due to a power outage or losing internet, for example), you will have 24 hours to resume play. After 24 hours, your session will need to be restarted from the beginning. 

 

RECOMMENDED TRAINING SCHEDULE

Mastermind Cognitive Training strongly recommends training a minimum of three (3) days per week. The more repetition you have in training, the better chance you have of improving your results. We understand that life may get in the way occasionally; don’t let that discourage you. Jump back in as soon as you can! Mastermind’s training program is built with the ability to use daily. 


Once you have completed your assigned training session for a day, the system will open up to allow you to play additional games of your choosing (Open Play), up to five (5) games per day. Your training sessions will update overnight and be ready to advance you the next day.
