Summary: Not worth your money
Comment: Picked it up on a whim since I enjoy puzzles & brainteasers. However, certain things quickly became annoying:
-If you are incorrect, you are not told the right answer.
-Many questions are repeated identically, particularly those involving patterns. This quickly grows dull.
-The difficulty levels are inconsistant. Some "difficult" questions will be as simple as the "easy" level (if not the very same questions), others progress too quickly. Math questions rapidly become very difficult.
-Variety was slim. Questions become more difficult with levels, but the question types don't change. Patterns for example involve cards, the alphabet, and a concentric circle shape. That's it.
The memory tests were the most interesting, although they also became repetitive. Plus since the questions rarely varied ("What order were these in?) it was easy to predict what to memorize for the picture.
If you are looking for challenging brainteasers, you will probably read too much into a lot of puzzle. For example, the 3x3 grid on the box cover. The answer is the red square, simply because the other two shapes have three pieces. It's disappointingly that simple.
I found very little fun with this game. Not thought provoking or intriguing, I recommend it if you find yourself stuck in a airport or extremely bored. There are far better memory/brainteaser/IQ games available.

Summary: not what I thought
Comment: This game is good for kids or for right before bed when your brain is shot because it is so easy. Only one person can use it, and it doesn't give any kind of score. Don't buy it if you seriously want to know anything about your real IQ, but it's ok to just have some mindless fun.

Summary: Another good brain twist
Comment: You got to love Nintendo for continuing to find ways to tests you're levels of frustration in a game. Hours of good mind frustrating fun.

Summary: ??? ( 'o' ) Hmm ...
Comment: I picked up this game yesterday and I really like it. I'm glad there isn't a timer to each question cuz some I am really slow on like Math. *I'm terrible in Math*. I find this game not so challenging except for the Dominoes and Math. The rest is quite easy but I enjoy it and think it's a good DS game.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Just OK
Comment: OK, this isn't a BAD game, it's just average. Yes, in the spirit of games like Brain Age, it does force you to think a bit, but Brain Age is actually stimulating. This is just sort of blah. Having said that, if you are looking for a break from Brain Age, this might not be too bad a choice to break up the monotony. Not saying there are worse or better games out there tho.
