It all started with Dr Kawashima's Brain Training: How Old Is Your Brain? in Europe last summer. Since then, over 10 million people globally are currently including the brain training game in their daily lives. Thus, the developer thought to include even more content in Dr Kawashima: How Old Is Your Brain? featuring all new exercises and DS Brain Age Checks

More Brain Training from Dr Kawashima: How Old Is Your Brain? uses
the same format as its predecessor. Using the DS's touchscreen ability and microphone, gamers will try and solve exercises based on easy to execute mathematical, cognitive and language-based tasks. While solving exercises, gamers will be measured by the DS Brain Age Check, for speed and accuracy. Once the score is established you will be set a regime to help stimulate your brain. The DS Brain Age Check features a calendar, which allows you to see your progress.

This new title however has an additional special feature: gamers are going to be tested on three randomly selected exercises including old school classic Rock, Paper, Scissors which asks them to name the position to either win or lose against the object shown.

Fun new training exercises include:

Correct Change which challenges you on an everyday day task
Missing Symbols: a twist on the classic "20 calculations" test
Masterpiece Recital which invites you to follow a music sheet shown on one screen and touch the corresponding piano keys on the touch screen

More Brain Training from Dr Kawashima: How Old Is Your Brain? launches across Europe on 29th June 2007, retailing for around 30 Euros (19.99 Pounds in the UK).
