Well, I got this game for christmas and i have found it very enjoyable! Me and my mum and dad played it at christmas and as they never use any consoles or anything it was very funny to try and watch them do the activities. They could answer and solve the puzzles but wasn't quick enough with the wii remote. So the first experience i had with this game was probably the best.

Well I best start talking about the game itself or it will be a pointless review :). Well as i stated above it is an enjoyable game! If you can class it as a game, it is more of a puzzle solving quick thinking game using a wii remote as the pointer.

Well when you first start the game, you can create a character or use one of your already created mii's to play, which is good if you have already created your own mii and want to use that. Also you can have as eight players at a time, but you can only use four wii remotes, but it can be played with just one wii remote. If playing with more than just one player it is also handy if you have a wii remote for each player, then you can play head to head which makes it more enjoyable for your experience.

Once you have created your mii and entered your name and all the little bits you need to do before you start. You will come into a corridor on your screen and you will be asked to do a test first to see how big your brain is and learn how to do everything.

The games are very fun and enjoyable, also great for ALL of the family. At the start you will find that children have bigger brains because they are quicker with the remote, but with a bit of practice adults do normally turn out better. This game is great for keeping your mind active! So a great educational game for your children! Also for adults it keeps your minds working and in top shape.

There are five different activities in the game which give you the total weight of your brain : identify - solve quick thinking problems, Memorise - use your memory to help you with these brainy challenges, Identify - absorb the details and make a thoughtful selection, Compute - Number crucnching skills, and finally visualise - study what you see and visualise the answer. In each of these 5 activities, you have 3 different games which test your brain. The quicker you answer them and the more you get right the bigger the size of your brain. Its that simple - yeah right!!!

There is also practice mode, where you can practice your weakest subjects and try to improve them, test mode where you increase your brain weight. There is also multiplayer games, where you can do a variety of different activities and compete against friends and family to see who really has the biggest brain.

Well that is about all i have to say about this wonderful little game and to add the price of the game is also great.

The only weakness to the game is probably the graphics, but the graphics on all wii games aren't very good, so that is a disadvantage to the console not the game. It also does get a bit repetive but it does get harder as you go on which cancels it out a bit. But overall i would rate it as a good game. And an enjoyable one for the whole family.
