Customer rating: 4 out of 5 stars Should get a 5 but there's just one thing...

I have to admit I LOVE this game, the activities are fantastic, without a doubt one of the best in the market. There's 1 thing that this game lacks though, and that's feedback. Unlike Brain Challenge, How old if your brain? and a few others this doesn't tell you anything about the brain, how you can advance better or tips & tricks in real life.

Of course I may be asking for too much but Brain Challenge has it all and it's cheaper, I'm not sure why they didn't include all that here but it could have been because they wanted to keep it as simple as possible.

Other than that I would 100 % recommend to this to anyone that wants a quality brain game!

Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars very good

It is a brilliant game that I have enjoyed playing especially doing the analyzing part. Which is dot to dot. I never get bored of playing on this game as it has so many things to do on it. This game is worth getting.

Customer rating: 3 out of 5 stars hmmmm.....

I bought this for my mum. She thinks it should have more memory games.
