Train your brain. Become the system.

Step into a VR experience where science meets gameplay. CORTEX QUEST is a collection of immersive mini-games for anyone ready to explore the mysteries of the human brain and sensory systems.

PSYCHOLOGY SIMULATIONS - Perception is not reality

Experience neurological disorders and how perception can dramatically change.

Explore three fascinating conditions:

  • Prosopagnosia - struggle to recognize faces and rely on alternative cues
  • Hemineglect - navigate a world where half of reality seems to disappear
  • Body Ownership Impairment - question what truly belongs to your own body

Each simulation challenges your senses and shows how the brain constructs reality.

BIOLOGY ADVENTURE - HEAR WE GO!

A scientific accident has changed everything… Your team of biologists has been miniaturized and sent inside the human body. Your mission: explore the auditory system and uncover how we perceive sound.

Equipped with advanced VR tools, you will:

  • Dive into the cochlea and uncover its mechanics
  • Activate hair cells and observe how sound becomes signals
  • Manipulate sound frequencies to understand pitch perception
  • Trigger action potentials and follow neural pathways
  • Travel to the auditory cortex

Learn hearing by doing, experimenting, and interacting.

Interesting game

Easy enough to play, opens up the discussion with students about transduction and sensation and perception. Good for our paired bio-psych course!
