A good idea done well, but not likely to captivate anyone other than the insanely bored.

Parents of the world, breathe a sigh of relief - an EDUCATIONAL game!!! Finally, kids won´t have to play GTA, Doom ad the like, the next generation of humans is safe... or not.
It´s good. It´s definately good. A good idea too. Simple tests calculate your "Brain Age", while other activities like Calculations x 20 - a round of 20 simple sums, answered by writing on the touch screen - and Reading Aloud - reading a passage as fast as possible, with the game giving you a score of syllables per second - are "Designed to activite the prefrontal cortex of your brain, and improve general brain power! Hoo hoo ha!" (No mistype, the ingame "doctor" says that. All of it.).It definately keeps you sharper than usual, which is good, but it only lasts if you play every game, every day. Kind of tedious though, so I reccomend you get it only if you expect to b extremely bored, for a long time, every day. It´s got sudoku as well, which I actualy quite like (Shut up at the back!), and you can have a 16 player battle with one card... doing 30 sums. Whoo-dee-friggin-doo. But still, a valient attempt at something different, but not enough to distract from salivating over trailers for FFXIII and MGS4. And budget price too, so l a lot more people will get it.
