•Participants are recruited among the adolescents with a congenital or acquired brain injury who had been referred to the Neurorehabilitation Units of the Scientific Institute IRCCS E. Medea in the last year. Patients with acquired brain injury are considered eligible for the study only if they are in a chronical phase (i.e., at least 1 year post-injury). For the whole sample, inclusion criteria for eligibility are:
•1. An age between 11 and 16 years, as in this age-range cognitive requests are generally elevated and individuals are usually able to use technological devices
•2. Being native Italian speakers, as in this study demonstrations and instructions on training games were provided in Italian language

•1. Severe sensory or motor deficits that could not be corrected through compensatory tools and could interfere with training execution and assessment
•2. Being simultaneously involved in a different cognitive rehabilitation treatment, to prevent excessive demands to children and possible interference on training adherence rates
•3. A diagnosis of photosensitive epilepsy, as computer-based stimulation could produce negative health effects in these patients
