Monash BrightSide

Brightside is a game designed to decrease the tendency that patients with depression or related mental health vulnerabilities have towards attending to (focusing on) negative stimuli in their environment. The game should be engaging to play and is also able to subtly change aspects of brain function to make individuals less vulnerable to depression and related conditions.

Game is ok. No clue how it's supposed to help depression.

This is a simple, boring little video game reminiscent of poorly executed 1980s arcade games. It's fine if you like that kind of game. The objective, scoring, and how all the additional items affect the game isn't that clear. Importantly, how this relates to depression, brain training, or attending to positive vs negative stimuli is beyond me. At very least a better explanation is in order. I deleted this after 1 game.
