While the participants awaited their attractiveness scores, the researchers had them play Tetris.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Some played a painfully slow, easy version of the game — which bored them. Some played an extremely challenging, fast version — which frustrated them. And everyone else played the classic version, which adapts to each player's individual skill level and gets them into that state of flow.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the end, everyone experienced a degree of worry. But the third group reported slightly higher levels of positive emotions (on average, about a quarter of a point higher on a five-point scale) and slightly lower levels of negative emotions (half a point lower on a five-point scale).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It wasn't a huge difference, but we think it's noticeable,\" Sweeny says. \"And over time, it can add up.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The results line up with a growing body of research showing that regular doses of flow can boost our mood and help us manage stress. And although playing Tetris is a reliable way to achieve flow, other absorbing video games would work too. And if you'd rather put down your digital device, no worries.

They’re hoping the trials show that the game is so effective at improving attention span and other cognitive skills, that it may reduce, or even replace, the pills that kids need to take for ADHD.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We had to look at ourselves and ask, okay are we really going to try to change medicine, yes or no. And the answer was yes,” Omernick says. “And so you have to be as serious as you can about FDA approval and regulation across the board.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pharmaceutical companies are also keeping a close eye on the process. Pfizer is partnering with Akili on one of its clinical trials looking at Alzheimers diagnosis. Though the FDA approval process is grueling by gaming industry standards, it's a cakewalk compared to the time biotech companies invest in drug development. It takes most drugs ten years to get through the FDA process and could cost half a billion dollars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And it could fail at the last step,” says Adam Gazzaley, a neuroscientist at the University of California-San Francisco and the creator of the prototype that became Project Evo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gazzaley says he is cautiously optimistic about how Project Evo will fare in FDA clinical trials. \u003ca href=\"http://www.apa.org/monitor/2014/02/video-game.aspx\">Research on other video games\u003c/a> for health has yielded mixed results – and inspired much internal debate among scientists. Some say the only thing these games make you better at is the game itself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gazzaley’s research is seen as an exception in scientific communities. He tested his prototype of Project Evo on older adults and found that they showed measurable improvement on standard cognitive tests for working memory and focus – and the effects lasted six months after they stopped playing the game.

If successful, their game would be the first to be approved for medical use by the FDA.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The first time those three letters were uttered in a group setting everyone’s like, ‘Oooh, that’s scary, do we want to do that?’” recalls Omernick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If start-ups sidestep the FDA and sell directly to consumers, they can bring a game to market in six months. For Akili, it will take four years to get their game, Project Evo, through the agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the start-up believes that will pay off.

They’re hoping the trials show that the game is so effective at improving attention span and other cognitive skills, that it may reduce, or even replace, the pills that kids need to take for ADHD.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We had to look at ourselves and ask, okay are we really going to try to change medicine, yes or no. And the answer was yes,” Omernick says. “And so you have to be as serious as you can about FDA approval and regulation across the board.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pharmaceutical companies are also keeping a close eye on the process. Pfizer is partnering with Akili on one of its clinical trials looking at Alzheimers diagnosis. Though the FDA approval process is grueling by gaming industry standards, it's a cakewalk compared to the time biotech companies invest in drug development. It takes most drugs ten years to get through the FDA process and could cost half a billion dollars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“And it could fail at the last step,” says Adam Gazzaley, a neuroscientist at the University of California-San Francisco and the creator of the prototype that became Project Evo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gazzaley says he is cautiously optimistic about how Project Evo will fare in FDA clinical trials. \u003ca href=\"http://www.apa.org/monitor/2014/02/video-game.aspx\">Research on other video games\u003c/a> for health has yielded mixed results – and inspired much internal debate among scientists.
