Cognido: A University Project Turned Brain-Training Hit
Developed by university student David Schreiber, Cognido is a fast-paced, multiplayer brain-training game that's taking the mobile gaming world by storm. This solo project pits players in quick matches against friends or strangers, offering a unique blend of math problems, trivia, and more.
Boasting an impressive 40,000 downloads, Cognido's success is easy to understand. While its squid-like mascot, Nido, may not quite match the charm of Dr. Kawashima's Brain Training, the game's engaging gameplay keeps players coming back for more.
Made in Germany, Free and Premium Options Available
Unlike many university projects, Cognido offers both free and premium gameplay options. While a subscription unlocks the full Cognido experience, a free trial allows potential players to test the waters before committing.
A significant update is on the horizon, introducing a new "Clash" mode. This exciting addition allows for four to six-player competitions, creating a thrilling battle of wits to determine the ultimate brain champion.
