What are the effects of playing?

Our games have a positive effect on people with intellectual disabilities. Stimulating movement and social interaction helps to increase the players’ self-esteem and self-reliance. And that’s important, because people with an intellectual disability rely to a great extent on their care professionals for support and assistance with day-to-day activities.

The games…

stimulate social interaction and physical activity
increase alertness, focus and self-confidence
help care professionals connect with their clients

Game levels of our games

The Tovertafel games have game levels between 1 and 5. This figure describes the level of anticipated cognitive activity.

Level 1: These games are intended for observation only. We do not offer level 1 games (yet).
Level 2: The players do not only observe the games, but are inquired to keep their attention.
Level 3: These games work toward a particular goal and require players to memorize things. To play level 3 games, the players need to stay focused. Every act is rewarded!
Level 4: It’s possible to make ‘mistakes’ while playing these games. The aim is to make the players think and reason. Their choices impact if they reach the final goal.
Level 5: Level 5 games focus on the part of the brain that controls executive functions, such as including planning and decision making. All Tovertafel games have game levels between 1 and 5. This figure describes the level of anticipated cognitive activity.

Memory Care

Cognitive effects

The Tovertafel games increase alertness and focus for people with intellectual disabilities. The players’ self-confidence grows as they experience what they are able to do, often to their own surprise.
Physical effects

Training motor skills in people with intellectual disabilities is essential as it allows them to explore and understand the world around them. Our games will help them with this.
Social effects

Playing is something you do together. Social interactions help people with intellectual disabilities to feel understood. Games in this category stimulate social contact.
Sensory effects

Exposing people with an intellectual ability to stimuli in an appropriate manner allows them to relax, discover and learn. Our games in this category will help them with this.

Co-design

Tover innovates, develops and designs. When designing games for people with intellectual disabilities, we believe it is important to put yourself in their shoes. That's why we develop our products together with our players and their care professionals. This process is what we call co-design.
