Advantages: Fun, Educational, Variety of games, Somewhat addicting

Disadvantages: Low replay value

Dr Kawashima's Brain Training is an excellent game that is not only fun, but educational too! By training using a variety of exercises, you can increase your ability to solve problems and your speed in completing such exercises. The aim of the game is to improve your brain age to one, which is preferably lower than your actual age.

Say you are 20 years old, you may start out getting a brain age of 40+, which you must try to lower to 20. This game helps you to familiarise yourself with simple sums and includes a good number of games to get your brain working.

The good classic game I like to play is the mathematical sum game. You will be faced with a certain amount of sums (up to 100) and you will go through them, writing down the answer to each one. The quicker you complete them all, the better your score. The sums are rather simple and range from ones like 15-6, 7x8 and 11x7 to 2+3 and 5+2.

There are many other games which test other skills in speaking and vocabulary. This game is meant for all ages but has a 3+ rating. This game will certainly help to improve your logic and you can have fun at the same time!

You interact with the game by speaking into the microphone and also writing on the screen, which the game will recognise very well in both cases.

Thanks for reading
