Is this the story you mean? I just googled "schizophrenia games" and this is what came up. Brain game 'improves lives of schizophrenia patients' - BBC News

I play a lot of games. Some games I can "feel" help me train my brain somewhat. But mostly I just play RPGs or similar games which I'm extremely familiar with, I don't think they train my brain much but they really help me relax and pass time quicker when I feel bad. But I guess it's better than watching TV. I have an expensive gaming computer rig but no console although I enjoy console games just as much.

I have a 360 and Xbox One. I like Assassin's Creed 2 and Unity, Fable 2&3! Elderscrolls, and Witcher 3. Sometimes I break out my GameCube and play Baldur's Gate. I'm pretty focused on Witcher right now. So...RPGs.

I've played black ops 2. Decent game. I find call of duties like eatin candy , great at the time but not very nourishing. But its a great pick up and play , if a person doesn't have much time. The problem with RPGs , is that then can be very beautiful , but you gotta invest alot of time on them.

when i was young the n64 was really big, my sister and i would play zelda ocarina of time on it. that was my first experience with a RPG. i couldnt sit and play call of duty long cuz it got boring but it was fun if i was doing well in the game
