Learn your mind. Play it too.
Quad N-Back, & Combination N-Back.

Well I finally downloaded the newer version of Brain Workshop 4.5, and I've played 50 sessions but I seem to be stuck at level two. I think I finally understand why quad n back is better for intuiton, because it goes so fast and you have to remember so much in so little time, that you just gotta go with your gut feeling.
Ok here's my question. I looked at the Combination N-backs and it looks harder then Quad N-back, does anyone play that one or is it too hard? I don't even know where to begin with the combination N-backs. It just seems very confusing. I guess if I work hard enough at Quad N-back I'll understand the combination and how to play it.

Combination N-Backs: cross modalities in registering coincidences.

Dual Comb 1-back:

Sound: "A"
Sight: "D"

Sound: "D" (match for "sound and n-vis")
Sight: "D" (match for "vis & n-vis")

Sound: "B"
Sight: "D" match for "vis & n-vis" and "sound and n-vis")

Get the idea?

Tri and Quad have one and two more elements, respectively (position and position and color), but without any additional cross-modality matching involved.

D the more confused you are, the more opportunity there is to learn.

Thanks, cogfun quotation protection. You've chopped off the head of my closing sentence!
