Review

 

If you're bored of playing games that don't stretch your brain cells and you'd like to give your grey matter an extensive workout, pick up this program. The tests have been devised in cooperation with Dr. Kawashima himself, a renowned neuroscientist. With Brain Training you can train both your mental awareness and your memory. Hold the DS vertically, like a book, and write your answers with the stylus on the touch screen. The exercises are quick challenges that help stimulate your brain. There's a combination of arithmetic, reading and memory tests, and the program calculates your score in the form of a 'brain age' by assessing the speed and accuracy by which you perform these simple tasks.

Great game for all the family young to old. Good for teaching the kids to do maths and great for us oldies to warm up the cold brains.

Many completions in the house to get a brain age of 21 and I won might I add I won wooo hooo.

Fun game for all :)

I found this very interesting to play and to see what things iam good at and what im weakest at. I love the word game where you have to say the colour rather than the word and i make sure i do the training everyday/. Have always been rubbish at maths and i can see this helping me to improve! my brain age has gone down already and ive only had it a week.
The suduko i am addicted to! i hadn't ever played before but once i did i couldn't put it down!
Would recommend this game to anyone that likes testing themselves and who like maths or wants to improve their maths skills.

Customer rating: 2 out of 5 stars just ok

I had high expectations of this game but i was disappointed! It became very repetitive when doing the training everyday as advised, when all the games are unlocked you do the same thing all the time. Its ok but not great.
