If you've ever been to university and tackled a project that was released to the public, you know the thrill and challenge it brings. Most such projects fade into obscurity, but some, like Cognido, defy the odds and achieve remarkable success.
Cognido, a brain-training game, was developed by university student David Schreiber as a solo project. What sets Cognido apart is its fast-paced gameplay, where you can engage in quick matches against friends and strangers, testing your mental agility in real-time.
With an impressive 40,000 downloads, Cognido's success is both remarkable and understandable. Many of us fondly remember the brain-training games popularized by Dr. Kawashima, though Cognido's mascot, Nido, offers a different, less comforting vibe.
Cognido, developed in Germany, isn't just a university project; it's a fully-fledged game that offers both free and premium experiences. While a subscription unlocks the full potential of Cognido, a free trial allows you to test the waters first.
Excitingly, a major update is on the horizon, promising to enhance Cognido with new content, including the Clash mode. This mode will pit you against four to six players in a battle to determine the last brain standing.
