4 out of 5 stars and Mom likes it too   February 28, 2008
Actually bought this for my mom who is 73. It can be a bit addictive when challenging yourself for a higher score. If you liked Big Brain, Flash Focus or Brain Age then you'll find this is similar in style. Shape recognition and sequence remembering are part of the challenges. Easy, Normal and Hard difficulty ranges helps you build your score. I think any age would find this a fun past-time game. Play each day and you will really see your score grow which apparently means your concentration gets better.

This game is okay, cartoonish, but fun, only 5 or 6 (games) subjects and mission to complete. I haven't completed a mission yet, but I'm still learning the game. I'm Older and My eyesight isn't what it used to be so reading glasses are a must. Some of the items I just can't get past, but I bought it for fun - not to earn a degree!!

Brain Age (1 & 2) are better, tho they have drawbacks too. But I still have fun with it.

Pictures too small. It is very hard to see on Nintendo DS screen. Otherwise, if the image is larger, could be a good game/brain exercise.


1 out of 5 stars maybe for kids   March 25, 2007

I bought this game becasue I love brain age and was looking for more of the same. I didn't find it here. Maybe ok for kids, but not the same crowd as brain age. Games are too easy, too few, and too silly.


3 out of 5 stars If you are tired of Brain Age and Big Brain...   March 17, 2007

If you are tired of Brain Age and Big Brain Academy, then you might find that thie will help fill your time a little bit too. Don't expect this to live up to both of those, but it is a cute little game, and I've gotten some fun out of it.

Basically, it's got five mini games (I never bothered playing with the story parts) to help boost your memory. I don't think it has boosted my memory, but it's a great distraction when I'm sitting in a waiting room bored out of my skull.
