Brain Challenge Reviews
I took the brain test and was very shocked at my brain age. Now I condiser it physical therapy and a medical need. Some exercises are very difficult to do. I thought this was a luxury item that on a fixed income I should not get. They test you then give you a work out. I have read so much on how important it is to exercise your brain and work with eye hand coordination as we age. You see your scores and are praised or told you need to work harder.
I got this as my first of two games. I highly recommend the game for the medical value and it is just plain FUN. The game is fun and challenging for me. I just got my first hand held video game unit the Nintendo DS lite. I have work to do. WRONG.
I figured that once one made it to that mark, a "new rank" would be achieved. It is weird because I feel I don't know if the game is "over". It is even more fun to play not half asleep with one eye closed. I have never played 'Brain Age'.
Aside from that, I like the game. I felt that it was a bit too easy to reach 100% and when I did, nothing happened. this goes up to 1000%".
I like it just as much as 'Big Brain Academy' on the Wii. I would like it if the company and/ or game itself said "great job, smartie, go play something else now". or "hey dummy, we tricked you.
I don't know. I continue to do the tests just for fun and my score is always 100% now. I like it, I play it right before bed.
I downloaded this for my ipod. Maybe one is supposed to score all "A plusses" in all the training games/ levels to beat the game.
I fear that one day I might stab my stylus all the way through my DS due to this stupid trait. - The sanctimonious advice: I don't need some animated dumb bell to tell me how to live my life. You can see that the above annoyances are really ruining my enjoyment of this otherwise excellent game. - The theme music: I haven't found a way to turn this off. Running the DS on mute helps for sure. - The alarms when the time is about to end: all this does for me is stress me out and makes me miss the last few questions. Running on mute helps here too.
- The animation at the start of the game: There seems to be no way to skip the game maker's stupid logo animation every frikking time one starts playing. This wastes about a minute *every* time - highly annoying. I really enjoy the tests and the practice but the annoyances above are just infuriating. However, it has the following highly annoying traits:. It keeps going on and on while one is browsing the menus. The game is better than Brain Age (IMO) due to the large variety of challenges that it presents. I (by necessity) practice late at night and the tiresome repetitive advice about my late bedtime really sucks.
Also, I think this was way better than Big Brain Academy. It's so much fun and some parts are downright tough. So I think if you're a Brain Age fan, you'll have fun with this. Small children won't be able to do this. Of course, you get better as you go. However, my niece and nephew can play that one but not this one. This game has different areas in which you can exercise you brain and measure your levels in areas such as logic, focus, memory, math. I love Brain Age 1 and 2 and this as well.
I like that I can unlock a lot of different games, and that I can play them over and over again should I so choose. It's not like Suduko can only be found on Brain Age games. The one thing Brain Age has that Brain Challenge doesn't and that I miss is Suduko, but really, big deal. I have both Brain Age games and I have to say that Brain Challenge is a lot more fun and a lot more challening. I actually enjoy playing these games, which really can't be said for Brain Age. If you're looking of a something that will keep you engaged and continually be enjoyable, I'd totally go with this game.
