Attention deficits can be caused by many factors and can arise from infancy to aging. An alternative to treatment is attention training with the use of electronic games. The emergence of new mobile applications for the training of attention aims to enhance the motivation of participants and, thus, increase adherence in treatment. This work aims to present the development of the serious TrainBrain game for attention training. The game aims to minimize the effects of the decline of attention, through training that can be applied to any individual. HTML5, CSS3 style sheets, JavaScript, jQuery library and framework PhoneGap were used for the development. An evaluation of the usability of the game was conducted with 30 users and the results pointed out that the usability aspects of the game were satisfactory.
