As the title says:
Graphics:
Cartoony but nice, aesthetically pleasing to ones eyes so that they don't feel their eyeballs falling out. The general populace normally look quite friendly which makes you at least comfortable with having to deal with sprites. That being said, this game is a good purchase including visual brain training exercises and executes them very well.
Overall 5/5
Sounds:
Ambient music is light, however slightly repetitive, tending to get on ones nerves after awhile if you continually play the games as suggested. The voices are a comfortable volume, though the lines that they use are very little and thus end up repeating as well, the same lines, the same voices, that can get very annoying, very quickly. You may find yourself repeating them as if hoping you can drown them out.
Sounds 3/5
Volume Controls 5/5
Gameplay:
Gameplay, the main part about this entire game... When you start it doesn't know where your at, so it starts you off easy. Of course for most people who do more than sit on their couch and watch tv all day, they'll breeze through these without a problem. This gives you a bit of a... bias towards yourself that you really are smart. Than the game decides it's going to just throw it's learning curve in. You end up feeling very stupid... very quickly. The learning curve for most people will feel like / that. Really literally uphill everytime. And though this does help the brain. The immediate push forward makes it hard to retain what's happening and though you may be excercising it almost feels like your going a little past healthy to the unhealthy realm at the rate of the learning curve. That's where my problem comes in, when you end up very busy for a few days, because of the sudden push and the lack of chance to really retain what happened you end up forgetting huge portions, then the game assumes that you'll be at the same level and throws that same level at you making your entire game plummet. It tries to overcompensate by being really easy after that and then you become frustrated because you don't get the same mental workout and you have to work your way up to the top again.
Gameplay rating: 4/5
