Bit of a weird one. Sort of a mix between brain training and the Mensa test. The brain training side is a bit weird and some segments such as word deductions give such a ridiculously short timer in the end stages that there's barely time to read the question and I'm a damn fast reader. The mensa test itself is stupidly short and lacks some fo the familiar mensa categories, relying purely on the mind♥♥♥♥ questions (seemingly random series of coloured shapes for example) with no explanation at all on how to begin solving them. If you've never taken a mensa style iq test before then you're probably gonna stare at it in total confusion. With that in mind, I wasn't expecting much of a result. The test doesn't make it clear whether the final score is arbitrary or an actual iq score and given that one achievement is "Mensa Material - score over 160" and that the Mensa entry level IRL is 140 ish I was expecting it to be random nonesense. That said, I scored my usual 142, so yeah...

Whilst the content of the game is very satisfactory, the interface feels outdated and clunky.

Taking into account these factors and the steep pricing of this game I rate the game a 7/10.

Great brain stimulator with demanding riddles presented in artistic interfaces. The language tests are hard for non-native English speakers though. I wish the game would be localized to other languages.

This game is not very good but it isn't all bad. The levels have so much potential but the game doesn't give a lot of that. I love brain age games but this one didn't do it's justice. Like I said, the game has potential but it doesn't deliever unfortunetely so we are stuck with a generic brain age game with little value.

5/10

This game is provides good practice for the brain, and without emotion it gives you a number. It is a bit repetetive however much it tries to make the tasks colorful. I do however enjoy it, and if you like puzzlegames you should have this one to challange your ego.

This is a neat little time waster if you're into brainy stuff. The design could be better, especially the long transitions between selection screens, but when you get to actual problem solving, its robust. The problems themselves cover a variety of math, word, and visual topics, so you will invariably find some very easy and others annoyingly frustrating. Which are which should differ from person to person.

In the end, it's a decent mental workout and you will feel your brain muscles aching from exercise. I give it three out of four medals.
