The title of this game says it all: "Train Your Brain in Minutes A Day". Brain Age sets up a profile for you, then gives you a test to determine your current brain age. The game then proceeds to offer multiple short games/exercises to help "activate your prefrontal cortex".
Throughout the game, Dr. Ryuta Kawashima offers guidance, tips, and plenty of positive reinforcement. He greets you when you sign in, explains the rules for the various games, and offers tips on how to better use the software.
Over time, as you continue training, new games are made available, giving you the opportunity to try out different exercises. In addition to these, the game offers numerous sudoku puzzles of various difficulties. This is an excellent addition!
Brain Age also an excellent choice for people who don't even play video games normally. I found that my mother-in-law was really enjoying the game and decided that she wanted a DS Lite for herself after playing the game.
