Brain Age Game

Best Addictive Brain Games
 
Hopefully some of those reading this review are old to remember that band Blink 182 and their hit song "What's My Age Again." which is the objective of this app, considered a game by some and a training session by others, these simple set of challenges are meant to keep your brain sharper for longer.

Anyone who has owned a Nintendo hand held system from GameBoy on are familiar enough with the concept. Jump through a few hoops and then be told what group of people you should be able to match wits with. Though this game appears to lack a large variety of methedology and falls very short in much of any explenation as to what your results mean. I ran through the test the first time and was told my age was just a smidge over 20. "Great." I think, "Is that good or bad?" I ran through the test a second time and it dropped a whole half of a year. So is 19.5 years old better or worse then 20? it seems that younger would be better, but surely there is a tipping point somewhere, who wants to be told you have the brain of a 4 year old?

As time goes on I'm sure we'll look more closely at other trainer/puzzle games offered by Best Addictive Brain Games, but something tells me that they can do better then this game.

Recommendation - Go buy a Nintendo 3DS and grab one of the Brain Age games.
