Scientists Prove the Power of Games in the Fight Against Depression

Scientists have proven the effectiveness of games in combating depression. In Germany, they decided to test whether Mario Odyssey helps in such cases and conducted a study. Participants with depression were divided into three groups: one played the game, the second did brain training on a special simulator, and the third underwent conventional treatment. Mario unexpectedly turned out to be much more effective: half of the participants in the third group reported a reduction in depression symptoms.
