StarStarter
StarStarter is the only therapeutic mobile game clinically validated to reduce anxiety symptoms
StarStarter’s core therapeutic method is a game-based approach to a decades-old area of clinical and neuroscientific research known as Attention Bias Modification (ABM).
How Do I Play StarStarter?
You’ll play at least 6 minutes a day, 4 times a week for at least 4 weeks.
Planet X in the spectrum galaxy is in distress and they need your help! An electrical storm has caused the planet to spiral out of its solar system and into deep dark space.
Each week your mission is to enter deep space and relight the constellations to help Planet X navigate out of the darkness.
Swipe your spaceship to earn stars and light up the constellations.
How Does StarStarter Work?
StarStarter’s core therapeutic method is a game-based approach to a decades-old area of clinical and neuroscientific research known as Attention Bias Modification (ABM).
The human brain is uniquely predisposed to subconscious, sub-second processing of faces. StarStarter uses facial expression and gamification to re-train emotional and attentional patterns that can drive persistent feelings of anxiety.
StarStarter’s proprietary game mechanics have been designed and optimized through a decade of neuroscientific research using EEG, neurostimulation, eye tracking, heart rate monitoring and MRI.
Warnings and Limitations
StarStarter is available non-prescription under FDA enforcement discretion; it is not evaluated, cleared or approved by FDA. It is not intended to diagnose, monitor, treat or prevent any disease. It may be considered as an adjunct to clinical care, it does not replace clinical care.
