There is a new web based game that was developed at the MIT MediaLab. It is available at :

http://asdgames.dyndns.org

Hope you find it useful.

What you will find is 3 games that are geared towards improving emotion-event association and awareness. Its especially geared towards those with ASD. I hope its helpful.

Nice..

Funny the amount of stuff I would associate properly while in a conversation with a few people around but not by myself sitting infront of a machine :lol:

Those games are interesting. :) Quite strange though, I usually think I'm okay with understanding emotions, but I did a lot worse than I expected! :P Not that that's a bad thing though, I think it's a great idea to find out just how well I cope in these situations. Nice find! :D

Game 1 is hard. I'm not sure who's emotions I'm supposed to pick for?

Yeah... a lot of these answers definitely don't make any sense.

A WHOLE lot of their answers don't make sense.
I think it's buggy, still.
