Survivor

BrainHex - Survivor “I'll find a way to get through alive.”


You like escaping from hideous and scary threats, pulse-pounding risks.

Your behaviour rides on the edge of your fear – you love to be terrified and then feel safe again.

Your major brain region is the amygdala, an ancient part of the limbic system (the so-called “reptile brain”) that controls fear by influencing the adrenal glands.

Your chemical messenger is adrenaline (epinephrine), which enhances the effects of the reward chemical dopamine.

If you were an animal, it would be a snake.

Favourite games of Survivors surveyed so far include Bioshock, Grand Theft Auto, Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil, and Silent Hill.

Survivor is kinda swing-and-miss for me. Didn't play much of Bioshock but what I did see was fun, hate GTA, don't care at all for Silent Hill, but love MGS and most of the Resident Evil franchise. I'm still playing Dead Frontier a lot, so that was a big influence in the answers that I gave on the test.

Mastermind

BrainHex- Mastermind “I know what to do.”


You like solving puzzles and devising strategies.

Your behaviour is focussed around making the most efficient decisions.

Your major brain region is the orbito-frontal cortex, an area just behind and above the eyes involved in making decisions, and the nucleus accumbens (or “pleasure centre”) which is closely linked to it.

Your chemical messenger is dopamine, which is chemically similar to cocaine, and is involved in habit formation.

If you were an animal, it would be an octopus.

Favourite games of Masterminds surveyed so far include Animal Crossing, Chess, Chrono Trigger, Fallout, Half-Life, and Zelda .

Never played Animal Crossing (although my brother told me I'd like it), and I love all of those other games. I still play most of them, and if I wasn't currently playing Dead Frontier this would probably be my main type and Survivor as secondary. I know that I have a strategy-centered brain; in strategy games most of my time is spent laying out a plan and the rest is me stumbling my way through it in chaotic fashion. These two types certainly compliment each other. Also, cocaine is a hulluva drug.
