WE MAKE
CRAMMING
FEEL LESS
LIKE
DOOM.
StudyStan turns the weeks before finals into something
you can actually handle — one quick, game-based
review session at a time.


Finals stress is real.
So we built
something that
actually helps.
Most review tools are either boring worksheets or overwhelming study guides —
neither accounts for how tapped-out students actually feel by week 14 of the
semester. So we built game-based reviews instead: short, low-pressure, and actually
fun to come back to.
Because staying calm and focused under pressure is its own kind of skill — and it's
one every student can practice, one quick session at a time.
Built by an
educator who gets
it.
Kevin Allen is a longtime educator with years of classroom experience and a specialty in organizational
psychology. His work has always centered on one question: how do you help a student actually believe
they can do the hard thing in front of them?
That focus on self-efficacy is built into every game on StudyStan — because confidence, not just
ORGANIZATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY
content, is what gets students through finals.

Three rules we build
every game
around.
01
Make it Fast
Ten-minute sessions that fit
between classes, not two-hour
study marathons.
02
Make it Fun
Real games, not glorified
flashcards. You'll actually want to
open it again.
03
Make it Stick
Spaced, game-based repetition
built to actually hold up on exam
day.
