What are some common videogame difficulties for people with ADHD?
(programming.dev)
A couple of times when I've played Dynasty Warriors with my girlfriend (who has ADHD diagnosis), I noticed that she would be literally running in circles having absolutely no idea where she was. She's not a gamer and controlling the camera can be finnicky for someone who isn't used to dual analogs, so there's that, but she also has trouble reading the minimap.
Yesterday I've had her play Crash Bandicoot 3 and she got "lost" in stage 2, the first underwater level. At the first sphere with electricity thingy, she thought she was supposed to keep going right, she didn't notice the pipe opening leading down.
Is "getting lost" like that common for people with ADHD?
She's also pretty lousy at Bomberman games, but she enjoys playing them.
crash bandicoot brings back memories. i would say RS boss battles, alot of them required timing to avoid massive attacks form the boss.
