All FlexiQ games boost these
6 FlexiQ-skills
Focus & refocus
FlexiQ games teach you how to focus your attention on something (focus), but also that you can shift your attention to a new ‘point of interest’ (refocus). You need the ability to focus,, hold it and redirect it to a preset target everywhere: at school to learn something, in traffic, at work, when reading …
Making connections
Creating links allows you to connect pieces of information to create new information or a bigger picture. You can combine things you see, hear, understand, remember, do or have to do to find new solutions or strategies. This allows you to adapt easier to new situations and to continue trying different and better solutions.
Changing perspective
When solving problems or playing games, but also in your social life, you have to adapt constantly to different circumstances and starting points. Adaptability means adjusting your approach, your opinion or the way you look at things to get to different, more creative and more successful solutions.
Considering multiple options
You can’t always solve everything immediately. Trial and error often leads to nothing. A key element of adaptability is that you can come up with multiple options and can weigh these against each other. What works and what doesn’t? This is also something you need constantly in your professional, social and educational life.
Training your working memory
Your working memory is a powerful function in your brain which allows you to hold onto pieces of information, observations or things from your long term memory long enough to do with them what you wanted to achieve. Expand the volume of your RAM-memory in your head with the games from FlexiQ.
Problem solving
Problem solving is more than just coming up with a solution. It requires creative thinking, considering possibilities, reasoning, building potential strategies and logical thinking to solve complex issues or questions. Whether at home, work or school, you do this in steps which all have a part to play in the solution.

Did you know that… ?
People with a high level of adaptability tend to be open to experimenting? Adaptability = being open to trying new ideas. A flexible thinker doesn’t often say: “Let’s do it like this, because we have always done it that way.”
