30 minutes later, I saw all it had to offer... and didn't really care to go back.

User Rating: 5.5 | Left Brain Right Brain DS
Left Brain, Right Brain is a game that attempts to improve your ambidexterity (use of both hands) with a bunch of minigames meant to be played with both your left and right hands. Once you use both hands, your scores are compared to see how your ambidexterity is on each game. In all honesty it's an interesting concept, and if it really improves your ambidexterity then it's all the better for it. Unfortunately, you can see all it has to offer in about a half hour, and probably won't care to go back. The games are all right, but can't really hold your interest for more and one or two plays. The games work fine for the most part, but some games have issues in letting you get very far, such as the game where you lead a dot through a maze and you keep hitting the wall because the controls aren't sharp enough. So while the game offers some ok minigames, they don't hold up for long. The graphical style is very simplistic, and it suits the game well, but it could have used a little more effort to make it look more interesting. The sound is your basic stuff, nothing special at all but nothing terrible. So unfortunately, this ambidexterity trainer can't quite hold your attention for long enough to make it worth getting, but it does make a halfway decent effort at trying to do what it's supposed to.
