Brain Training Comes to PCs

- Professor Fizzwizzle is ready to train your brain

By: Calin Ciabai, Games Editor

The Nintendo DS handheld console was and will probably be the system where brain training games feel at home. However, this doesn't mean it will be
holding a monopoly for long, especially since this kind of games manage to bring in the big bucks. Recently, the Xbox 360 consoles have received their first brain training title and, thanks to Grubby Games, the PC systems will get their own title that's going to help people all over the world keep their brain fit and ready to do the most difficult thinking.

It seems that no game within this category will be even considered unless a professor's name is associated with it, so Grubby Games decided to call for help and they called the result Professor Fizzwizzle's Brain Train. Actually, they didn't really like how it sounded (of course, "Fizzwizzle" rather sounds like something that goes hand in hand with platform jumping and cute little bees flying around, collecting pollen) so they eventually decided to call their game The Amazing Brain Train. Already confused? You shouldn't be, it's a brain training game, after all!

So, The Amazing Brain Train will be developed for PC systems only and comes with 15 innovative mini-games and three different game modes. However, the game tries to be at least somewhat different from the rest of the brain training titles on the market, promising to bring some full color and animated graphics and, probably most important, it will say goodbye to the goal-less gameplay: it will be packed with quests, trophies and even a global online high-score system. It seems not to have a real storyline, but at least it is a step forward.

The game is already available for purchase from the Grubby Games website and a short demo is also available for download, so you can start training your brain on PCs right now!
