  • A recent study found that “Super Mario Odyssey” reduced depression symptoms more than cognitive training or standard treatments

    The N-value was pretty low, only 46 participants divided to three groups, so one can’t draw too many definitive conclusions from this study. Also their findings were reduced symptoms. If your house is on fire and you figure out a way to reduce the amount of smoke, it will appear as if your house is less on fire. Still, interesting results which implies that games could be used as part of a treatment.

    They found out that people like playing video games more than going to a psychiatrist.
