MindScroll: Turning Doom Scrolling into Active Thinking
A mobile game that transforms endless scrolling into a fast-paced experience of interactive micro-challenges.
About the Client
Impact Summary
The Business Challenge
Doom scrolling encourages passive content consumption with minimal cognitive engagement.
Existing learning apps often require long attention spans and lack instant feedback.
Users needed a lightweight yet mentally stimulating experience that fits short usage sessions.
The Solution
We designed MindScroll as a social-feed-style mobile game where every scroll presents a micro-problem.
Challenges require users to think, recognize patterns, or make quick decisions across multiple domains.
The game offers three difficulty levels—Easy, Medium, and Hard—as well as a Random Mode with a balanced challenge ratio.
Each challenge is self-contained on a single screen to ensure fast, uninterrupted gameplay.
Key Implemented Features
- Scroll-Based Micro-Challenges
- Multiple Difficulty Levels
- Randomized Challenge Mode
- Fast-Paced, Single-Screen Gameplay
- Multi-Domain Cognitive Challenges
The Result
Users engage in active thinking rather than passive scrolling.
Short play sessions still deliver meaningful cognitive stimulation.
MindScroll successfully reframes scrolling behavior into a productive mental exercise.
