    This cartridge was clearly made by people who love these sorts of games... An excellent choice for people seeking a little quality "pick up and play" action.

    It’s been carefully crafted to provide superb gameplay, and especially great graphics, despite the fact that games of this nature can only ever really be used for boredom-busting.

    Easily the best feature of Ultimate Brain Games is its focus on multiplayer. More specifically, its focus on single-cartridge multiplayer.

    All those games and skill levels! It is just great to have that on the go. My only complaint is the difficulty is kind of tough on some games, like Chess and Reversi where I cannot beat the easiest level. However Checkers, Dominoes and Battleship are a breeze no matter what level. Still all are solid games. Well worth it.… Expand

    It's exceptionally well designed overall. I just wish the chess board was easier to see - pawns look like bishops. This game would be perfect for a long trip though.… Expand

    If you're looking to play these games, there are better options on other devices. Or you could just play them in real life against real people! Real people is much better than predictabke AI moves.… Expand
