  Frustrating fun April 6, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This was the first game I bought for my DS, after seeing the ads and half-believing the hype. It explained how to use the game clearly, without talking down to you and making you feel like a small child. I must point out that it is only suitable for 20+ year old, despite the classification on the front. This is because it helps to train faculties that only start to decline at 20. It was engaging, had a good variety of tasks, and was different enough each day that I wanted to use it each day. If you're thinking that it sounds too good to be true, I do have one criticism. If you said other things during rock, paper, scissors or weren't careful when drawing with the stylus, you got a lot of erroneous wrong answer picked up. I know this works, as I imporved my scores vastly.
  Well.. March 31, 2008 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I got this one for christmas, and by about january the 5th i'd lost intrest! My handwriting is unique an easy to read from the human eye, but my DS thinks it's some random junk! You also have to shout at it .. ROCK PAPER SCISSORS. My mum was upstairs ironing and shouted down the stairs whilst i was doing rock paper scissors and it picked up my mums voice and not mine! Overall this games ok.. but not the best

  it works! January 29, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
great game to play daily to improve brain skills etc. maths memory etc improve with play.
better than the first game, as tasks more fun. can get tad tedious and repetative.
recommended game.
  Interesting but January 14, 2008 13 out of 15 found this review helpful
Most of these comments also apply to the original Brain Training. Although a clever concept there are some logic problems with the good doctors assumptions. The insistance that speed is the most important element ignors the fact that anyone with a mobility broblem can not get a high score. The character recognition is poor, better with numbers than letters. The voice recognition just does not work, I have yet to find anyone with a Japanese / American accent to try it and see if this helps. There is however one inexcusable bug almost a milenium bug in that it is unable to in one of the "games" to cope with the change from 2007 to 2008. Will probably have thrown it away by 2009 so will not check if that year change works. I would also like to turn off the pseudo scientific talk that means nothing and wastes time.
