this game is good for kids who need help with:

Working Memory

Because there are a limited number of patters to the way the course is designed, players can essentially memorize the layout to anticipate the next obstacle. It's one of the advantages to playing often. If players are able to survive longer, they will get to see more of the obstacles. Simply put, players can use what they learned from previous races to plan the way they will approach the the rest of the course. Succeeding in Pivvot is a testament to player's memory, as long-term and shot term recall are important to engage when seeking higher scores. Although the course will not be the same every time, players who can internalize the layout will ultimately fare better to those who play each game with a "blank slate."

Flexibility

While there are some similarities in course maps, players still have to adjust quickly to ever-changing side scrolling terrain. They must angle the ball differently each time a new obstacle is introduced -- and they don't have much time. Players have to make decisions quickly, almost instinctively, as the pace of the game continues to pick up. One moment players must avoid a windmill blade shapes with a 360 degree sweep, and the next they have to carefully fit the ball between two triangles. Players are constantly adapting to different shapes and obstacles. Pivvot is a great game for learning how the flexibility thinking skill functions in an immersive gaming environment.
