Cognitive load refers to the mental effort required or invested to achieve the objectives of a task. Cognitive load plays vital role in various everyday tasks including security, management, video games, driving and learning. Since its inception in the 1980s, cognitive load has been used as a key parameter for measuring task performance using various tools and techniques. One of the most significant areas that cognitive load affects is the performance of game players. Depending on the performance and cognitive load of gamers, certain games can be regarded as either exciting or boring. This paper aims to discuss games for health and the need to measure cognitive load in these games. Finally, we suggest methods to measure cognitive load in games for using some existing games for health as examples.
