I have. I did the trial. The games are fun, but the price is rather steep for me.

The science is rather suspect as well. But it never hurts to challenge your brain.

Susprisingly I got better at the multitask game where you had to remember peoples names and orders.
Then my trial ran out.
Brain training actually does work. I do it quite a lot and it helps with my memory.
