An independent product review of Memory Booster was carried out by a school in England for Unique, below are a few extracts:
"The teachers pack provides a good guide to how the software works and insights on how our brains store information."
"All pupils were focussed and repeated each memory strategy aloud to reinforce it. The children showed real enthusiasm for the game and supported each other through the levels. The children were pleased when they completed their mission and were thrilled to be given the coins which could be exchanged for cartoons. The children loved the cartoons and found them hilarious."
"The programme is easy to use and requires little or no teacher assistance. The children are taught different memory strategies throughout the game."
"I would recommend this CD-ROM to anyone working with children especially parents. If you are looking for a fun, easy to use and effective programme to improve your child's memory skills, I would have no hesitation in recommending this product."

Testimonials
"I am a mother of five and felt that my children were very forgetful in their every day lives, always relying on me to remember everything about their daily activities and timetable. Therefore I started searching for a method to work on their memory skills. In this search I came across the "Memory Booster CD-Rom". This programme has proved perfect for us in many respects. First of all it teaches them methods to record information. Secondly it exercises their memories through a variety of stimulating and challenging games. Thirdly the programme is so well designed that it entertains the child all the while it works their brains! Finally memory strength has helped my children with their spelling and concentration. Thank you all at Lucid Research!"

"I really enjoy using Memory Booster." "Memory Booster makes learning fun." "It really helps my memory." "It's so good that you can change the timing to suit your memory." "Levels can be increased with a nice cartoon ending."

"Recently I was given a brief demonstration of memory booster and was very impressed. I would like to order a copy for myself - I am a peripatetic teacher working for the LEA, however due to restrictions of funding the only way for me to obtain this at the moment is by purchasing it myself. I am happy to do this as I can see so many children I work with benefiting."
Teacher
"I am an NCTE tutor and will be delivering an ICT course to a group of 20 primary school teachers (July 4th - 8th). I have just had the pleasure of using Memory Booster Demo CD and am highly impressed with its content. As soon as finances will allow I intend to purchase it for my own school. I intend to use it on my forthcoming course."
Thanking you,
Teacher

"Do you have a package that is compatible with this for my son who, whilst
having achieved 10 A grades this year at school Y9, is dyslexic?
I Look forward to hearing from you.
PS. This product has been recommended to me by his learning support teacher."

Carole
"We saw a demo of Memory Booster last week at the SEN exhibition in Islington, London.
I would like to buy this as soon as it is released, and your representative suggested that I email you and ask you to put me on the list, so that you will let me know as soon as it is available. Can you do that?"
Heather, Teacher
"Memory Booster is really cool." "I feel good about my memory when I can move onto a higher level." "The cartoons are wicked. I get these after getting all the sequences right." "Memory Booster makes learning strategies fun and they really help."
Quotes from pupils
"We are a large infant school with 58% special needs children. We recently purchased Memory Booster and since receiving it we have found it to be a really useful resource. The children not only love playing the games but are starting to develop and in some cases refine memory strategies."
