While I did enjoy Brain Age: Concentration Training and still train every day with it, there are some aspects I didn’t enjoy. Some of the Devilish Trainings can be just downright tedious and off-putting at times while the game’s handwriting recognition could use a bit of work. However, if you can train enough days to unlock some of the other types of training, it can still be a fun experience.
Brain Age: Concentration Training takes Nintendo's cerebellum-enhancing series onto the 3DS in style. It boasts a wealth of content, smart presentation, and loads more charm than you'd expect from a brain-training game.
Another great instalment of this serie. This time it has a lot of improved features, it's more beautiful, fully voiced, has more interesting lectures and more challenging puzzles specially for the young people. The only step back that I would say is that the number of time one can play each puzzle is too restrict (5 min/day) and there's no way to play again, besides that it is a great game for those who desire to train the brain.
For the most part, though, the game excels in taking mundane tasks and making these activities fun. At the same time, having to unlock everything (along with the required Devilish Calculations demo) is an awkward way to introduce players to the experience. Nintendo would be wise to remember this before releasing a sequel.
Dr Kawashima's Devilish Brain Training does everything it sets out to do, but it doesn't try to be particularly ambitious. If you've played previous Brain Training games before, you know exactly what you're getting into, but it's not an experience for everybody.
Assuming concentration is a problem worth solving (an assumption lacking the solidest of foundations), I will argue there are better, significantly more efficient, ways to address it than through another game from a device that's otherwise a regular dopamine provider by its own rights.
Brilliant game, very intuitive, and very hard at higher levels. Once you get past the devilish calculations, it is very enjoyable. This was my first foray into the Brain Age series so I can't compare it to other iterations. Well worth the money.
Llega nuevamente la serie de entrenamiento cerebral de Nintendo, "Brian Age: Concentration Training" introduce nuevas actividades para mantenernos despiertos mentalmente, esta vez más centrado en mejorar nuestra capacidad de retención de información e imágenes.
Utilizando operaciones matemáticas y juegos de memoria extremos con los que tendremos que practicar cada día para desbloquear toda la colección de actividades. En ésta entrega se mejora mucho el reconocimiento de lectura de la pantalla táctil, ésta vez es ínfima la situación en que el juego confunda los números, por lo que la experiencia es la mejor de la serie.
"Brain Age: Concentration Training" no es para todo el mundo, porque a priori no es un juego clásico de consola, se puede llegar a sentir como una tarea pero son esfuerzos que valen la pena hacer. Uno de los por menores es que ésta vez cumplir con la rutina diaria requiere una buena cantidad de minutos, así que se hace difícil programar el entrenamiento pero no puedo no recomendarlo si te interesan éste tipo de prácticas.
This game is quite a new turn in the Brain Age series. First of all, Dr. Kawashima TALKS, and best of all, he becomes SATAN, a two-in-one DEAL! Joking aside, there are some pretty upset fans over the "bizarre design choices" the developers made over its gameplay. I will only repeat this once more, as I did in my review of Brain Age 2: HE'S A DOCTOR. He is helping the brain in news ways, completely different to original gameplay in the series, yes, but it can be both fun and innovative. The effects of the game DO pay off, and watching those graphs rise gives me thrills. Not all of the gameplay from the original games have been abolished at all. There are still many many exercises from the previous titles and even new ones as well aside from Devilish Training. I will say this though: If this is Brain Age, why did Nintendo remove the Brain Age Check?
The whole concept of the game sounds really interesting, but the game itself isn't good. You can't do the same math task more than 1 time per day, which is mindblowing. You get a game, but the game decides when you can play it? What's the sense in that? And playing this game WON'T help you concentrate better, all it'll do is help you get better at it. So the game is also plain lying to you. Even as a math lover this game made me want to go play something else or actually study something worthwhile of my time.
Summary(Also known as "Dr. Kawashima's Devilish Brain Training: Can You Stay Focused?")Brain Age: Concentration Training offers newly designed training exercises that will challenge players with activities to help improve their concentration skills and the ability to access their short term memory.
