Rating:  - Some glitches and moody coaches...
I've owned Brain Challenge for a couple of weeks, and I do enjoy the games, especially the daily brain and stress tests. However, the game does make mistakes occasionally (for example 3x3... you write 9 and it marks it wrong and says 32) which can be frustrating, especially since the coaches cop an attitude if you don't maintain good scores. There are also mistakes in the format of the coaches' brain questions... she'll ask you something that she's never asked you before, and then she gets mad ... Read More
Rating:  - Great game, but coaches stink
I, like many who have purchased this game, also have played the Brain Age 1 & 2, Flash Focus, and other similar games. I will agree with the others and say that it does have the best variety, and best graphics.
The only thing that I really don't care for is the attitude of the coaches. In the Brain Age games, if you have an off day, your coach has an "It's okay, you're just having an off day, you'll do better tomorrow" kind of attitude. This game, the coaches have a "What's ... Read More
Rating:  - I have a LONG way to go on this game. Yikes :(
I just got my first hand held video game unit the Nintendo DS lite. I got this as my first of two games. I took the brain test and was very shocked at my brain age. I have work to do.
The game is fun and challenging for me. Some exercises are very difficult to do. I have read so much on how important it is to exercise your brain and work with eye hand coordination as we age. I thought this was a luxury item that on a fixed income I should not get. WRONG.
Now I condiser it physical ... Read More
Rating: - What happens after "100 %" Brain Usage"?
I downloaded this for my ipod. I like it, I play it right before bed. I felt that it was a bit too easy to reach 100% and when I did, nothing happened. I continue to do the tests just for fun and my score is always 100% now. It is weird because I feel I don't know if the game is "over". I figured that once one made it to that mark, a "new rank" would be achieved. I don't know. I would like it if the company and/ or game itself said "great job, smartie, go play something else now"... or "hey dummy, we ... Read More
Rating: - Good game with annoying traits
The game is better than Brain Age (IMO) due to the large variety of challenges that it presents. However, it has the following highly annoying traits:
- 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 the DS on mute helps for sure.
- The theme music: I haven't found a way to turn this off. It keeps going on and on while one is browsing the menus. Running on mute helps here too.
- The ... Read More
