Fun, quirky, little game from the land of the Rising Sun

User Rating: 7.7 | Brain Age: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day! DS
A game like this is definitely rare, it makes me like math! Call me a nerd, but the mini-games are truly fun when you are timed and rated thus giving you your brain age from I believe 23-80. Although it doesn't mean anything but bragging rights, it's still addictive. Theres little quirky games that have you memorizing words and numbers, reading aloud, telling time, and playing the popular sudoku. This game actually got me into sudoku and the helpful right/wrong section helped me get good at it just in case you don't know how to play. The game also has small things here and there you can do with the mic to say at the Japanese guy for random things and changes to the games. With the good, come the bad. You have to learn how to speak into the mic otherwise the game won't interpret it right and throw off your brain age. You also have to be careful with how you write with the stylus as the game has a tendency to misinterpret what you write. Overall, once you get how the game works, you'll be able to do well and even possibly better your math skills in the process and for $20 you can't go wrong. This game also makes great use of the DS's capabilities and is easily playable by almost anyone you know.
