Addictive and frustrating. A must for people who like to game in short bursts

Well where to start...what a lot of fun. A fairly lengthy game with a few interesting variations on the old "spot the difference" routine. As a video game I'd say the idea was excellent and well presented. A "career" type mode is the main focus where progressively more difficult levels are presented, for example solving 10 problems within a time llimit to gain points. Each problem is to find one difference between the presented images. The quicker and more accuratly you spot the difference the more points you get. Bronze, Silver and Gold medals are awarded if you score enough points and more levels are unlocked. The other mode is the find all the differences for a picture, typically 10 and boy are some of them frustrating (or is it me?).
There is a multiplayer option as well and that has been a source of somne amusement in my household (imagine the embarrasment of being beaten by a child whose age is still in single figures - well happens to me a lot!!)
All in all something a bit different that uses the touch screen nicely and is what the DS should be all about. Forget "mainstream", multi platform games lets see some more like this on the good old DS!
And as a cut price release this has to be considered a good purchase!
