Study Says Playing RTS Will Keep Your Old Brain Healthy

On December 16th, 2008 in Uncategorized -


Here’s a little thing I will have to remember for when I get older and wiser. A study has revealed that playing RTS games will improve your old brain’s performance. The study was published in the medical journal Psychology & Aging and it shows that real-time strategy will help the elderly maintain their ability to reason and their short term memory.

I am not sure that our grandparents can adapt that fast to an RTS game but I know our generation will be able to do it when we get older.
