Browser-based cognitive training arcade for Level Up's language-development program: working memory, attention, reasoning, processing speed, reading and spelling. Every game has 20 levels with separate timing for under-18s and adults, and every round produces a structured score.

01 — Problem
Learners needed daily practice that stays challenging as skills improve, and trainers needed that practice to produce comparable scores instead of anecdotes.
02 — Approach
- 01
Each game targets one cognitive skill: N-Back for working memory, Schulte Table for attention, Matrix Reasoning for non-verbal reasoning, Code Breaker for processing speed.
- 02
Twenty levels per game. Time per answer, sequence length and rule complexity tighten as a learner passes each level; adults train on a faster curve.
- 03
Neon Lights, Block Memory and Target Tap use light, colour and motion as the stimulus, so the games read clearly on phones and tablets.
- 04
Every round records accuracy, response time and level reached; those scores feed the assessment and the automatic reports.
