Another Learning Game for the iPod: Brain Challenge
Submitted by mott on December 9, 2007 - 15:30
Just in time for our pilot roll-out of 5 iPods at school, Gameloft has released Brain Challenge for the recent generation of iPods. So far, it's my favourite game. And it really looks like I could use it.
Pros:
Great little puzzles that, they say, will exercise your brain; keeps you motivated by telling you that you have the brain of a 78 year-old (not me, of course), little tips about the importance of maintaining brain health, and competing by against yourself and the "average".
Cons:
Counterintuitive selection GUI design (the "highlighted" answers are actually the non-selected answers); some images are difficult to identify; brain "coach" gets irritating really quickly.
Look out Mensa membership... this year I'm feeling lucky.
