Map depicting the Nuremberg U-Bahn lines and routes. Opened in 1978, Lorenzkirche on U1 is one of the few stations to serve Nuremberg's historic centre. With main line trains, buses, trams and the three U-Bahn lines, the Hauptbahnhof is Nuremberg's main. N has been described as reminiscent of lode runner - you're a little dude running around in a puzzle-y world inhabited by enemies. But in N, there's a twist: the ninja is driven not only by a thirst for gold, but also by a physics simulation.

Brain Workshop is a free open-source version of the dual n-back brain training exercise.
What if a simple mental exercise could improve your memory and intelligence?
A 2008 study published in the PNAS scientific journal shows that a memory task called dual n-back may improve working memory (short term memory) and fluid intelligence. These findings are important because fluid intelligence was previously thought to be unchangeable.
Those findings have since been replicatedtwice with strongly positive results, and twomore times in smaller studies with weaker, but still positive, results.
Brain Workshop implements this dual n-back task, and allows you to attempt to improve your own working memory and fluid intelligence. The dual n-back task involves remembering a sequence of spoken letters and a sequence of positions of a square at the same time, and identifying when a letter or position matches the one that appeared earlier. Brain Workshop can closely replicate the conditions of the original study. In addition, it also includes optional extended game modes such as Triple N-Back and Arithmetic N-Back for extra challenge. It also includes features such as statistics tracking, graphs and configurability.
Anecdotal evidence from users suggests that the dual n-back task can also enhance focus and attention and may help improve the symptoms of ADHD/ADD.
