Cognitive games for seniors: Slowing the development of dementia

Background

There is currently no cure for dementia. While cognitive training games can slow their development, suitable cognitive games for seniors remain limited. Interactive cognitive games rooted in cultural elements are age-friendly, engaging younger audiences, and fostering intergenerational relationships while supporting dementia care.

CONCEPT

This mahjong-inspired game is designed for seniors aged 60 and above, particularly those with mild cognitive impairment. It utilizes reality orientation and reminiscence therapy to enhance focus, calculation, and color recognition. By incorporating ink wash and mahjong visuals, the game promotes familiarity and helps slow the development of dementia.
