5 out of 5 stars Brilliant   July 31, 2007
 8 out of 8 found this review helpful

I have to agree with the other reviewers this is certainly an enormous improvement on the first which I thought was good . Having worked in a shop I find the loose change quite easy but the Masterpiece recital has to be the best thing any one has come up with . You're not always doing the same piece over and over , I have played this for almost a month and have yet to have the same piece twice . It's good for beginners like myself and for people who know a little about piano music and keys . I thoroughly recommend this and can't see them beating this if they try any more in the series.


5 out of 5 stars Much better than the first one   July 27, 2007

I'm really enjoying more brain training - the first one, although enjoyable was quite dull after you'd unlocked all the training. On this one though, the games are a lot more fun especially the music one and are harder too (not so good at word scrambler at the moment), but that makes you more determined to get better at them.

I also like the fact that it has a mini game attached to this one, which is highly addictive and I've sat for over 3 hours just playing this.

The only thing I don't like is the rock, scissors, paper game. I did think the stroop test was better on the first version. This could however be because I'm not very good at it - maybe I'll like it better once I improve!



5 out of 5 stars Brain-Twisting madness   August 30, 2007

Last year, gamers really started to go wild for the Nintendo DS all over again. Not just because of the DS which was redesigned into the DS Lite, but a whole new era of mental challenge games attracted new gamers young and old. Mainly, with Brain Training, the Nintendo DS got older gamers into the scheme of gaming and excitement from verbal memory games, to introducing Su Doku, the challenging puzzle game that have really made gamers go wild. Unfortunately, there have been many knockoffs to Brain Training like Mind Quiz for the PSP, that really haven't delivered and attracted the feeling that Brain Training delivered. Now, a sequel to the original mind bender that started it all, returns to the Nintendo DS, but is it good as it was before, or falls short on memory?

Brain Training 2 for the Nintendo DS tackles on more exciting puzzles than before. The gameplay is expanded nicely, but there are also a lot of changes to the gameplay here in the game. The first main change is that a lot of the verbal games like the color strooping exam were removed, because there were a lot of problems with the microphone use in the game. Instead, there are a lot more games that feed off nicely from Nintendo's other DS mind-bender Big Brain Academy here, where you have to comprehend how much you have to give back as change in pounds and pence, to memorizing a song on a piano. Another new game is called word wheel, where you have a series of letters spinning around, and you have to fill in the exact word, one letter at a time. There are also a few things that have returned here, including the picture drawing challenges, but especially the Su Doku puzzles, withe over 100 new puzzles to test your mind. The graphics are just as simple as they were before, but the gameplay is just even more addictive than it has been before, and the control also handles that just as well.

All in all, with so many mental games in the video game market right now, Brain Training 2 really does deliver nicely for the Nintendo DS. If you haven't tackled the challenges before, you may want a new mind-reading workout. I loved the original one, and I really like the new addictive challenges. I absolutely suggest you buy this sequel, and keep that brain sharp.



5 out of 5 stars You're brain needs a work out too, you know...   January 11, 2008

There is an absolute brilliance in a series of games that encourage you to use your brain, I maintain my belief that this game is deserving of an award of some nature. As the second instalment of the popular game it has a lot to live up to and I am glad to say that the games are as addictive as those in the first, if not more so. As in the first game the objective is to lower your brain age to that of 20, which the game states is the best you can get. Some might say that it is frustrating that the game cannot produce an IQ reading or anything of any particular meaning, however I think that the real point of the game is that it doesn't want to seem like it is making you work. If you can make using your brain fun, then you will do it frequently and you will enjoy doing it. Schoolteachers could learn a lot from this game. I already firmly believe that since having made Brain Training part of my daily routine, like brushing my teeth, there has been a noticeable improvement in my memory and concentration as well as my mathematical skills. What a wonderful thing to admit as well.


5 out of 5 stars Brain training and fun   July 15, 2007

I've had this game a few weeks now and really love it - the training is quite different from the 1st Brain training - I love the Germ Buster which I can play for hours - this is for relaxing and can only be played once a training has taken place. The music recital is fun, correct change and word blend are my favourites. It has Sudoko too. Definately worth getting.
