Ask HN: Good mobile games to play with chemobrain?

3 pointsby gtbcbover 7 years ago
My Mom was diagnosed with cancer back in January, and she is currently undergoing chemotherapy. One side-effect of chemotherapy is &quot;chemobrain&quot; whereby there is some cognitive impairment during and after treatment. I think games could help with this.<p>I&#x27;m looking for games with the following characteristics...<p>* brain engaging<p>* easy to play (she&#x27;s not tech savvy at all but does have an iPad and iPhone and can sort of browse the web; doesn&#x27;t know how to download apps, but I can make that happen)<p>* ideally single and two-player (so she can play solo and with me) and potentially multiplayer (so she could play with others)<p>* asynchronous (so I can easily play with her at the convenience of both of us) games for mobile (iOS specifically)<p>I&#x27;ve tweeted the American Cancer Society a couple of times but haven&#x27;t received a response. Below are some of the resources I&#x27;ve run across and their downsides.<p>Lumosity &#x2F; Elevate - single player only.<p>Words with Friends - fair<p>https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.verywell.com&#x2F;brain-game-apps-for-chemobrain-513911<p>Any help is appreciated, thanks!
