Video games are beneficial to mental health.In the article Can playing video games help your mental health? by Gemma Grange it states "There is also a large body of research utilizing gaming theory and structure to help improve willpower and decision-making in a range of mental health conditions¨ Playing video games can also help with stress can also help because there are games like farming simulator Star dew Valley. Your character escapes the monotony of corporate life and moves to a farm to live and work. The aim of the game is longevity: to make friends, fall in love, go on adventures and grow your farm.There is little to no action and there are no direct threats, meaning that this game is an overall relaxing experience for the player. This proves that playing video games can also help with stress.

I feel as though Video games are really good for your mental health. A research group at Oxford that is studying this question seems to agree with me. In their article they state that "from the last few years of monitoring the data, studies show that video games offer problem solving situations that allow one to solve and reduce stress." Which proves my claim that video games are good for your mental health. I also know from personal experience that focusing on a video game for a period of time can help clear your mind. Once your mind is clear you can look at the problem that was stressing you out a different way, this can help you come up with a solution.

The participants who played Mario did better on follow-up memory tasks, while the others showed no improvement pre- and post-gaming. “Video gamers who specifically favor complex 3D video games performed better,” the researchers concluded.
